he “Stone Building” as it’s known, served as our entire winery until the crush of 2001, when we moved all production operations, including aging, 50 feet away into our new production facility and caves. It now serves as Nancy and Gary’s office, houses our wine library in the underground cellar, and hosts winery tasting events, such as our annual release tasting. The building was completely designed by Gary and is made of native basalt stone collected in the nearby Blue Mountains on family weekend excursions over many years. The “tack shed” is where the humble beginnings of Leonetti Cellar lie. Converted from its equine purposes to a winery shortly after Gary and Nancy bought the property in 1977, today it’s used as our “Vinegarium. Our new production facility was completed for the first crush of the new millennium, and performed flawlessly. The winery houses our crush pit (outdoors), fermenters, lab, and cased goods storage on the main floor. Underneath the new winery lies our barrel aging caves where Leonetti wines age for 15–22 months before being bottled. We feel so blessed to work in this beautiful, spacious structure after being cramped for so many years in our wonderful but undersized facility.
