Welcome

We love that Praxis wines are getting a lovely reputation for quality at a fair price. 

Praxis Lagrein wins Double Gold in Lodi! Lagrein is a varietal that we first tasted in the Italian Alps and fell in love with...the wine is deep garnet and robust. The 2007 vintage is our favorite wine at home these days - it goes with everything...or nothing!

We were thrilled to be awarded "Best Merlot under $20"  in the United States from Food & Wine Magazine.  And our Praxis Viognier was awarded Best of Class with a Double Gold Medal at the 2008 Houston Rodeo Wine Competition! 

To us Praxis is a way to let Bill play with different winemaking techniques and…as he likes to say, “Praxis makes perfect!” Praxis is from the Greek for practice and was an early 19^th Century philosophy relating to the unattainable search for perfection. Like Arbios, all of the Praxis wines are 100% of their varietal – most are from a single vineyard. All of Bill’s wines tend to be more European in style – balanced without excessive alcohol.

In the spirit of Praxis, we have now a Dry Sryah Rose from Alexander Valley and a Lagrein from the Central Coast.  The Rose is dry and full of strawberry aromas and flavors. This is Bill's first Rose in 20 years and we are delighted with the results. 

Although we have the fabulous support of people across the country hand selling our wines, Bill and I are the only staff here so please feel free to contact us with any questions, queries or special requests. If you can't order wine shipped to your home state, maybe we can ship somewhere nearby.  Please contact us by email us at Susan@ArbiosCellars.com or Bill@ArbiosCellars.com.
