Draxton Wine Cellars

20750 Geyserville Avenue, Geyserville, CA

Architecture and project management of a new 61,658 square foot, wine production and office facility for Mike Draxton and his wine team. The project has an agrarian theme with a “modern barn” tone and a high emphasis on sustainability and environmental awareness. Designed to accommodate the crushing and processing of 20,000 tons of grapes annually, the project is in the Use Permit stage.

Key to any successful project are the design & builder team members. We were fortunate to have Ken Lafranchi on our team from the very first scoping meeting right through to the grand reopening two years later.

His abilities are now legendary, from our perspective, as we watched the project unfold from doctored pictures and bundles of drawings to giant holes in the ground and then the framework of what would become our new business home.

The coordination between we owners and Lafranchi, Eddinger Enterprises, and the slew of hardworking, knowledgeable and dedicated sub-contractors brought us a building we will be proud of forever. We cannot thank the team enough.
