A visit
to The Brander Vineyard is somewhat like visiting a
small wine estate in Europe. The landscaped grounds
of flowers, poplars, cottonwood, and redwood trees,
plus a rustic courtyard create an Old World atmosphere
of tranquility. The peaked wood-beamed ceilings and
tiled floors add to the large French doors which provide
an endless vista of the vineyard. The three flags of
Argentina, Sweden and the United States flying over
the pink Chateau reinforce the international background
of the Brander family.
