Mira Winery, located in Napa Valley, was co-founded by winemaker Gustavo Gonzalez and Jim Dyke. Their partnership began in Washington, D.C., and evolved into a winery that emphasizes the art of winemaking, with the name "Mira" meaning miracle in Latin, reflecting their unique journey. The winery initially gained attention for its experimental underwater aging program, Aquaoir, although this has been paused due to regulatory issues. Mira produces a range of wines, focusing on 100% varietals, with an annual production of 3,500 to 5,000 cases, sourced primarily from notable vineyards like Hyde Vineyard and Schweizer Vineyard. Their offerings include both red and white wines, with a commitment to balance and aging potential. In 2016, Mira acquired 16 acres in Yountville, replanting the vineyard with six varieties. They opened their own winery in 2019, designed for gravity-fed winemaking. However, in mid-2023, they sold the property to LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton. The winery's visitor experience includes a well-designed hospitality space, showcasing their commitment to quality and craftsmanship in winemaking.
