In addition to making famously splendid wines, we also dabble in other agrarian pursuits down on the farm. We grow fruit and vegetables, culinary herbs including saffron, and we keep a number of animals which are pets as much as anything.

We also, on occasion make little movies about all of this. We see them as MAXiMOViES™ but in fact they are little, extremely modest microdoodles. They are just tiny things, but we hope you enjoy them.
