Melville Winery resembles a romantic Mediterranean Villa. Set amid lavender bushes and poplar, oak, and sycamore trees; the winery is the nucleus of the estate grown Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Syrah vines.

Greg Brewer, winemaker at Melville Winery and for his own label, Brewer-Clifton, believes in the manipulation of the grape, stating "wine is made in the vineyard." Brewer strongly believes that technical proficiency plays a role in making wine, but it is secondary in importance to the raw ingredients being used. Wines obtain their full potential based on the isolation and study of vineyard blocks.
