The story behind it

The maker

Founded by veteran winemaker Bob Blue in California, 1000 Stories was born out of a desire to create a bold, non-traditional wine using a uniquely American barrel-aging technique. The brand pioneered the bourbon barrel-aged wine category, combining the heritage of American whiskey making with California's signature grape.

How it is made

Crafted by winemaker Bob Blue, this wine honors the traditional American method of aging in charred bourbon barrels. The winemaking team selects specific lots of Mendocino County and California Zinfandel to stand up to the intense barrel-aging process.
