11th Hour Cellars is a family-owned California winery sourcing grapes from the Sacramento and Lodi areas of the northern San Joaquin Valley. Led by fifth-generation family winemaker Paul Scotto, the winery works with vineyards on sandy loam soils influenced by Sacramento Delta breezes, moderate humidity, and cool nights. Its winemaking decisions are deliberately delayed to preserve natural, intense fruit, aiming for balanced texture, complex aromas, soft tannins, and a clean finish. The range includes Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Shiraz, White Zinfandel, and Zinfandel. No specific sustainability certifications or farming practices are noted.
