It all started in 2004 with a tiny patch of raw earth and a bucket of grapevines to make a dream come true. Ground. Grapes. Grit. The initial goal was to produce Pinot Noir from these grapevines. “The best laid plans....” In the process of digging in the dirt, we learned the true meaning of terroir and its absolute vital role in producing premium fruit. Casa Dumetz is what brought me here, to this place. Starting in 2016, the Casa Dumetz label began producing one singular Pinot Noir from the Sta. Rita Hills. Each vintage explores a unique vineyard and clone within the appellation. With the 2020 vintage, we introduced a kindred Chardonnay to the Casa Dumetz label, sourced exclusively from the LaBarge Estate off Sweeney Canyon road planted on the western edge of the Sta. Rita Hills. If you know Pierre LaBarge, owner and vigneron, you know his farming responsibilities are executed with extreme care. We are beyond excited to be the sole recipient of the only Chardonnay planted on this property. Thank you, Pierre. Today, Casa Dumetz is the overall umbrella for our three labels, which includes Clementine Carter and The Feminist Party. The Rhône varietals are dedicated to our Clementine Carter label. Our principal multi-varietal blend is The Feminist Party GSM, highlighting our collaborative drive.

Casa Dumetz - Sonja Magdevski

Clementine Carter

Sonja Magdevski is a winemaker, as well as a Michigander, a first-generation American, a Baskin-Robbins expert, a Fulbright scholar and a journalist. Open and thoughtful, Sonja brings a wealth of stories to the podcast, from watching Westerns with her dad, to mistaking an MTV reality show for journalism — a move that subtly changed her life. I’ll just cut to the chase here: she wound up meeting and having a relationship with Emilio Estevez while helping him plant a vineyard in Malibu. They’re no longer together — Sonja is now married to a fellow Santa Barbara County winemaker, Greg Brewer — but the winery they began together in Los Alamos would go on to be her baby, Casa Dumetz. Sonja shared her perspective on travel and education, as well as immigration and the significance of beauty in the modern age. Website: casadumetzwines.com Instagram: @casadumetzwines
