Matchbook – Matchbook Wines
Why Matchbook?
Matchbook has six products, all focusing on varietals that perform well in the warm Dunnigan Hills climate. All the wine are Estate Grown and Estate Bottled; that means the wines are 100% from grapes we grow on our Matchbook vineyards.

As farm kids growing up in the late 1950’s and early 1960’s, the Giguiere brothers were veritable pyromaniacs, setting numerous things on fire—including the family wheat fields. Fearing total ruin of house and farm, the boys’ father one day left them at the city jail for an hour’s “stay” to impress upon them the dangers of their fascination with fire. But it was to no avail. They soon graduated to launching rockets, which resulted in more uncontrolled blazes and calls to the fire department. Over time, the Giguiere boys outgrew their fascination with the flame. But even today they look at the Matchbook brand with fond memories of the fires they once stoked.
