BRIAN AND LORI NUSS HAVE MADE THEIR HOME in the Mount Veeder Appellation for over 25 years ago when they came upon a spectacular property in its epicenter. They raised horses, farmed cattle and learned about agriculture. Brian and Lori's curiosity about growing grapes and love of fine wine was the impetus for starting Vinoce Vineyards. They now enjoy farming 24 acres of beautiful Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot from the vineyard.

They have achieved their dream of building a successful family-owned winery in one of the most exclusive regions in the Napa Valley. Through their hard work and contributions to the winemaking region, the local community, and their family, they have added to the integrity and pride of the region. Today, Vinoce is a small, ultra-premium, family-owned and operated winery thriving in the heart of Mount Veeder.

“Brian and Lori have developed a special place in Mt Veeder.
We tasted the Mt Veeder Proprietary blend over an afternoon .
The richly textured wine became lusher as the hours passed.
Chocolate and cherry in the nose with excellent structure. 
What a time.”    -  Doug W.   Napa, CA
