About The Winery:
First founded by grower Rob Murray, Tooth & Nail Wine Company immediately followed a path of true grit and determination to find success in Paso, although it’s a tough place to grow grapes and make wine. Rather than battle nature, they bottled it–fighting tooth and nail to create wines they could be proud of. Wines that embrace the elements in the pursuit of excellence. Wines for people who simply love wine.
Today they grow four unique brands of wine. Each is distinctively devised to avoid the dominance of the winemaker’s hand and express the native energy of this region. Led by winemaker Jeremy Leffert, their process accentuates the character of the product instead of obstructing it. The results are wines that are as adaptive and exciting as the journey the winery takes in crafting them.
The Tooth & Nail Squad is nevertheless the brainchild of owner-winegrower Rob Murray, who worked with local design studio, Ethur Ethur, to create the renegade characters on the labels and to build the imaginary world they live in. Along the way, Jeremy further executed his own creative vision for the wine inside the bottle.
Tooth and Nail Wine Company sustainably farms their own grapes and crafts all of their wines in Paso Robles, California.
