   Arietta, an ultra-premium Napa winery specializing in limited production Bordeaux-style blends, is owned by wine specialist and auctioneer Fritz Hatton and Caren Frutig Hatton. One of America’s most celebrated winemakers, Andy Erickson, crafts the Arietta wines from carefully chosen blocks in the cooler climates of Napa Valley.  

 The Hattons founded Arietta in 1996 in partnership with winemaker John Kongsgaard and his wife Maggy. The partnership was born of a shared passion for fine wine and classical music. 

 Arietta is our name for wines born of a passion for music. The name Arietta, meaning short aria or art song, expresses our belief that all great wines must sing.

   About Caren Hatton, Proprietor

Caren graduated from the University of Michigan with a degree in Kinesiology. Her career in pharmaceutical sales and marketing lasted 10 years before co-founding Arietta Wine with partner Fritz Hatton in 1996. It has been Caren's dream to make Pinot Noir ever since.

Named for my grandmother who had a profound influence on my childhood, and who always welcomed our family to a warm and cozy home, Nestweaver is a dream realized. 

 Nestweaver is hand-made in partnership with winemaker, Patrick Nyeholt. Nestweaver is inspired by the Pinot Noirs of Burgundy but originates in the cool climate of the Sonoma Coast.
