Producer Description

Founded in 2005, Matchbook Wine Company is owned and operated by the Giguiere family, John, wife Lane and his brother Karl. Previously they owned and operated R.H. Philips on land that was part of their family farm in the Dunnigan Hills of northwestern Yolo County. Starting as a small family owned vineyard and winery the company grew into a 750,000 case producer sourced mostly from estate fruit from their 2,500 acre vineyard which is rare for such a large producer. After selling R.H.Phillips the Giguiere family started Crew Wine Company, now Matchbook Wine Company. Before joining the Matchbook team, winemaker Dan Cederquist worked at Stag’s Leap and De Loach.Matchbook produces wines meant to explore the terroir of Dunnigan Hills and the California coast. To that end, the team has spent a great deal of time identifying and nurturing just the varieties that adapt well in this environment. Occasionally, a small percentage of coastal fruit is included to intensify natural aromas and flavors. The name Matchbook is a tongue in cheek homage to John and his brother’s childhood when they used to get into trouble for lighting matches and setting off rockets.

To enjoy the Arsonist Dunnigan Hills Chardonnay, simply open the bottle and pour it into your favorite wine glass. Let it breathe for a bit if you like, then savor the rich flavors. Remember to store it in a cool, dark place. Keep it upright to prevent the cork from drying out. When serving, it pairs well with a variety of foods like grilled chicken, seafood, and creamy pasta dishes. Just be careful not to overchill it, as that can dull the flavors. And don’t forget to share it with friends for a great wine-tasting experience!
