About Rack & Riddle Custom Wine Services: When wine industry veterans Rebecca Faust and Bruce Lundquist first set out to establish Rack & Riddle Winery, they envisioned a leading-edge facility using premium vineyards to produce wine in the heart of the North Coast wine country. But not long into planning, their goals stretched to include a still and sparkling custom crush facility for custom crush clientele, as well as for the Rack & Riddle wine brand.

Rack & Riddle Custom Wine ServicesBringing together six winemakers on staff, including the sought-after skills of winemaker Penny Gadd-Coster, Rack & Riddle specializes in processes that take an incredible amount of labor, time and equipment, but that result in a superior wine. Faust and Lundquist harness a combined expertise of over 40 years to create a niche in the marketplace. It’s no small feat to make sparkling wine in the traditional méthode Champenoise. As such, most wineries don’t attempt it. Rack & Riddle unlocks the ability to create outstanding, award-winning sparkling wines for a host of brands.

Rack and Riddle Private Label Services:

Rack & Riddle Executive Director of Winemaking Penny Gadd-Coster leads a team of six winemakers/enologists who are dedicated to sparkling winemaking in the traditional method. A private label wine from their program means the brand can offer a premium sparkling wine label that pairs perfectly with any occasion (or food!) and has an enduring shelf life.

Rack & Riddle’s limited-release white label wines are hand-crafted from select grapes using the traditional French method, méthode Champenoise. Gadd-Coster, a renowned winemaker with more than 30 years of experience in sparkling winemaking, was named “Winemaker of the Year” in the inaugural Wine Industry Awards for the Napa and Sonoma winemaking regions.
