A single-estate vineyard, owned and operated by the Hartenberger family since 1995. The owner and winemaker, Rich Hartenberger manages its entire 30 acres of wine grapes. Planted varietals are Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Malbec, Zinfandel and Chardonnay. 8,000 cases of high quality and award-winning wines are produced annually. Midnight fully controls every aspect of its wine production - from planting, pruning and harvesting, to fermenting, aging, blending and bottling the finished product. The Hartenberger family began Midnight Cellars in May 1995. The idea had sprung from a family vacation to Northern California wine country. While sipping wine and overlooking a beautiful valley, the fateful comment was made: “Hey Dad, you should buy a winery when you retire, and we’ll run it for you!” Two years later, when Dad’s retirement became a reality, the winery idea resurfaced and became an actuality.
