Experience a Unique Winery in a Restored WWII Hangar

The Passionate Winemaker

Eric Dunham, the founding winemaker, developed a love for wine early in life. As a teenager, he often sampled his parents’ diverse wine collection, even learning to pick the locks of their wine cellar, much to their dismay. His time in the Navy at Moffett Field in Santa Clara County didn’t deter his passion; he frequently visited Napa Valley to deepen his appreciation for wine. With a refined palate and a vision for crafting exceptional wines, Eric returned home and secured an internship at Houge Cellars. He later became the Assistant Winemaker at L’Ecole No. 41 in Walla Walla Valley, where he produced the first Dunham Cabernet Sauvignon in 1995. A few years later, he transformed an old WWII hangar into the charming Dunham Cellars we know today.
