History
In 1982, the winery was founded in Carmel Valley by Robb Talbott and his father, Robert Talbott Sr.[1]
Vineyards
Talbott sources from two vineyards, Diamond T and Sleepy Hollow. The Diamond T Vineyard was planted by the Talbotts in 1982 with chardonnay on a mountaintop in Carmel Valley.[2] Sleepy Hollow was first planted in 1972 in the Santa Lucia Highlands, and has a mix of pinot noir and chardonnay.[3] The Sleepy Hollow Vineyard was purchased by Talbott in 1994, enabling them to produce wines exclusively from grapes grown on land owned by them—making Talbott an estate winery.[1]
