In the old West, before the days of ATVs and Helicopters, when Cowboys still worked cattle a horse back, the term "line shack" referred to a small cabin built on the open range where cowboys could take shelter from natures wrath.
Our “Line Shack” was discovered in 1989 when our family aquired a small ranch in Chualar Canyon, Monterey County, California. The only building on it was a run down cabin we affectionately called the “Line Shack”. Soon this building was remodeled and it became a favorite place to gather and celebrate family, food and friendships. It also became the Tasting Room and extra Barrel Room when the garage became full.

Winemaker Bob Balentine
My wife Daphne and I began making wine 19 years ago after befreinding Italian Wine Maker and King of Radicchio, Lucio Gomiero who is the owner of two very successful Italian Wineries, Vignalta in Italy’s Veneto (perennial Tre Bicchieri winner) and La Fiorita, a winery that produced one of the highest rated Brunellos ever by Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar. it was under Lucios' guidence that I developed my palate and attention to detail so important in the production of fine wine.
