|
Established in 1992, Dutch Henry Winery is a small family-owned and operated winery in Napa Valley. The Chafen family takes great pride in caring for and nurturing all aspects of the winery and vineyards. Less and Maggie Chafen have grown grapes in Napa Valley for nearly 20 years. Their son, Scott Chafen oversees the daily operations of Dutch Henry Winery. Less is a Bay Area radiologist, specializing in nuclear medicine and breast imaging technology. Born in Texas and raised in Virginia, Less brings an intellectual sensibility to the winery and keeps a keen eye on the financial well-being of winery operations. He is devoted to the vineyards that are the foundation of Dutch Henry wines. Maggie is the arbiter of style at Dutch Henry. She owns Dottie Doolittle in San Francisco where the best dressed children take their parents to shop. A California native and Master Gardener, Maggie is famous for hosting elegantly casual gatherings at their St. Helena hillside retreat, Northfork Ranch. Her cuisine features freshly harvested produce and estate olive oil from her gardens and orchards.
