About The Varietal

About The Producer
Derek Rohlffs, of Cherokee descent, has always felt a deep connection to nature, particularly the mountains, and finds peace outdoors. After earning a degree in Environmental Studies at UC Santa Barbara, he initially worked in the gaming industry but developed a growing passion for wine. A pivotal 1999 encounter at Mayacamas Vineyards revealed the link between land and wine, sparking his calling. Derek quietly pursued winemaking at UC Davis and, with guidance from Jeff Brinkman, crafted wines in a traditional style at Bravium. His Cherokee heritage, symbolized by the name "Winter Hawk," continues to guide his journey in the vineyard and cellar.
