The Skupnyy family (John & Tracy with sons Reed & Jerzy Lang) have been beating the Cabernet Franc drum since 1996, starting up after John's stints at Caymus and Niebaum-Coppola and during Tracy's long tenure at Spottswoode. Working with long-term contract fruit, mostly from Lake County, they have created a brand with North Coast typicity and a Loire soul.
