The estate produces two Cabernet Sauvignon-predominant blended wines from a small 2-hectare (5-acre) vineyard site. Only around 800 cases of wine are produced each year. Only a few bottles find their way outside northern California. The property is divided into two separate plots. The upper vineyard is characterized by volcanic soils and is planted to Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, while Merlot, Cabernet Franc and smaller quantities of Petit Verdot are planted in the clay-loam soils of the lower vineyard parcels. These grape varieties are blended to produce the estate's flagship Bordeaux red blend, Dancing Hares, and its second label, Mad Hatter. The first Dancing Hares vintage was produced in 2003, although the wine wasn't released to market until 2011. This vintage was a blend of 47 percent Cabernet Sauvignon, 34 percent Merlot and 19 percent Cabernet Franc.
