About Markus...
From the Markus Wine Co website:
Founded in 2014, Markus Wine Co. began as a subventure of Lodi’s first boutique winery, Borra Vineyards. Winemaker Markus Niggli selects from wisely-planted ancient vines and newly-planted unusual offerings throughout the Lodi region to craft small-production bottlings that focus on fruit and age.
