Carmel Valley Tasting Room: Brenda and Duane met in 1978, only a few miles from where they currently live. They married in 1983 and Marin was born in April of 1992. The 20-acre property was purchased in 1993 and we called it the Black Diamond Ranch. The driveway to the house is so steep, that if it ever snowed in Lockwood, the driveway would be a black diamond ski run. In 1999, we stumbled into the wine growing business. Syrah was becoming a popular varietal and a neighboring grower had extra vines to plant. Marin still remembers pulling out the many and large calcerous rocks when the vineyard site was being developed. Our first crazy idea was planting a vineyard, and the second was to start our own winery. Our first harvest was in 2001. Then in 2002 we started our own label and brand – Marin’s Vineyard.
