James-Beard-Award-winning Imbibe Magazine recently caught up with Ashes & Diamonds owner Kashy Khaledi to get an inside look at the new Napa winery, covering everything from the striking modernist architecture that's garnered numerous nods and accolades, to collaboration with esteemed winemakers Steve Matthiasson and Diana Snowden Seysses, to the distinctive wine label design by Brian Roettinger (known for his Jay-Z and Beach House album covers).
Citing that "the intent is to make head-turning, low-intervention wines that stay true to California’s terroir," the article notes Khaledi's key differentiator of how "many decide to make a wine and then go look for the site. It’s the opposite for us. We find the site and then go make the wine."
