Cliff Lede Vineyards’ philosophy is built upon a commitment to enhancing and protecting the valuable land and water with which we grow our wine grapes and enriching the quality of life for our team. In 2015, our winery and vineyards were awarded with a Napa Green certification which focuses on farming and production methods that meet and exceed more than twenty local, state, and federal “best practices.” Cliff Lede wines are an exuberant expression of our Napa Valley vineyards and reflect the natural harmony and balance we encourage through the practices below.

Cliff Lede | Founder
Empty heading Since founding his namesake winery in 2002, Cliff Lede (pronounced lay-dee) has put every emphasis towards creating a modern and diversified world-class estate. A strategic thinker and visionary, Lede is the driving force of a company that at once holds the values of the great Old World winemaking properties, with the energy, youth and spark of the New World. His wines are intrinsically connected to the land, yet his view point is forward-thinking and entirely fresh.
Chris Tynan | Director of Winemaking
As Cliff Lede Vineyards’ Director of Winemaking, Chris Tynan lets the grapes speak for themselves. Born in New York and raised in Texas, Christopher Tynan began his wine career working summers as a vineyard technician doing irrigation management for vineyards across Napa and Sonoma counties.
Travis Bullard | Winemaker
As winemaker at Cliff Lede Vineyards, Travis Bullard works alongside director of winemaking Christopher Tynan to oversee day-to-day winemaking operations and the management of the wine production team. In addition to working in the cellar, Travis represents the winery at key trade and consumer events.
