Philosophy
Lost in the Cellar was started by Inger Mattern in 2015 as a way to express the fruit that both she and her husband John Mattern farm since the founding of Split Rock Ranch in 2011. Their inspiration for growing terroir driven wines is exuded through their love of music and community. Lost in the Cellar strives to deliver wines of place, celebrated in times of joy.
Soil Is Life
As third generation farmers in Mendocino County John and Inger Mattern utilize Organic regenerative farming practices to produce well rounded fruit with ripe phenolic expression.
