Wine - Chardonnay - Big Table Farm

big table farm is the collaborative effort of brian marcy and clare carver

In 1996 Brian worked his first harvest. Having studied fermentation science at Davis, he took to the process of winemaking easily and loved it. While working in Napa Valley, Brian learned from some of California's most esteemed winemakers and wineries - Turley Wine cellars, Neyers Vineyards, Blankiet Estate and Marcassin, just to name a few.

Brian also spent a harvest working in Australia at Trevor Jones Fine Wines. These varied experiences have contributed to Brian’s ability to optimize each vintage.

In addition to partnering with Brian to market the wine and manage their 70 acres, Clare is also a painter and wine label designer. Her fine art speaks for itself and her labels have received multiple awards, including America's top ten wine labels (S.F. Chronicle). Clare's first passion is her painting, but she finds great joy in working with her team of draft horses.
