About Materra Wines:
From his days, owner Brian Cunat, worked on a Midwest farm, developing an interest and respect for agriculture and farming that became his life’s passion. In 2007, Brian and his brother John purchased a 50-acre property in the Oak Knoll District of Napa Valley as an investment. Brian decided to blend his passion with an expert team of vineyard managers and winemakers.  In 2014 they completed construction of a state-of-the-art winery capable of producing 150,000 gallons and a beautiful tasting room. Each Materra wine is a perfect expression of the land, the grapes, the passion the Cunat family has invested in each bottle and the unyielding quality delivered consistently by the growing conditions and terroir of the Napa Valley.
