In 2023, we were hired to assist with the beautiful redesign of Chandon Winery. Nestled in the rolling hills of Yountville, California, the luxury winery wanted the landscape, plants and grasses to align and reflect their brand identity. Guests should feel inspired to explore a variety of spaces, from large entertainment areas to intimate tasting lounges. We went to great lengths during construction to protect the property’s California Live Oak trees, which are over one hundred years old and provide ample shade for the winery’s visitors.
To allow for outdoor tastings to continue during the renovation, we completed this project in phases over the course of one winter, working closely with the designer and client throughout the process to ensure that our team’s work was aligned with their vision.
“The grasses and plantings were carefully chosen to tie into the brand’s color palette and to emulate the way a glass of their sparkling wine captures the sunlight.”
