Vermeil Wines LogoWhen expertise honed from generations of winegrowers marries the technology and education offered by a master vintner, the result is truly unforgettable.  This union is the secret behind wine produced at OnThEdge Winery.  Winemaker extraordinaire Paul Smith was educated at CSU-Fresno in enology-viticulture and has over 30 years of experience in the wine field.  His wife, Mary Sue, is a member of the Frediani family, whose dry-farmed vineyards are located in the esteemed Rosedale-Pickett Road area of northeast Napa Valley.   This unique area near the base of the Palisades features a broad variety of soil types ranging from the higher and essentially bottomless Pleasanton gravels, to the lower, richer and heavier Bale clay loams fronting the Napa River.

 The vineyards and the warm Calistoga days and cool foggy nights combine with the third generation Frediani Family winegrowing experience to produce fruit rich in color and flavor.  Under the direction and vision of Paul and Mary Sue, the Frediani fruit that has been well-loved for decades continues to evolve into rich OnThEdge wines that you will enjoy for generations to come .
