Freemark Abbey Winery

Freemark Abbey Winery, located between St. Helena and Calistoga in California's Napa Valley, traces its roots to 1886.

Depending on conditions, the winery sometimes makes a late harvest Riesling known as "Edelwein Gold".

[1] The winery was originally named Tychson Cellars and it produced Zinfandel, Riesling, and "Burgundy".

In 1939, three businessmen from Southern California, Albert "Abbey" Ahern, Charles Freeman and Markquand Foster purchased Lombarda Cellars.

Together they reopened the winery and renamed it Freemark Abbey (a combination which includes a portion of each partner's name).
