Planted in 1996 with Cabernet Sauvignon vines. Marcia Francis vineyard sits on a sloping hillside of Santa Cruz Mountains, along the Peninsula. Warm days are cooled by the coastal fog rolling over the hills. In the evening a perfect climate allows the grapes to thrive in our organic farming practices.

Each year the grapes are harvested by hand and the wine is placed in French oak barrels for 18-20 months. After bottling we let it rest for at least a year or two. The outcome has been a wine that you can taste the care given to the vineyard and the craftsmanship in the production from grape to bottling. We hope you enjoy it!

Urfa is a city in south-eastern Turkey, deeply rooted in history. Its unique cuisine is an amalgamation of the cuisines of the many civilizations that have ruled in Urfa. Dishes there carry names in Kurdish, Arabic, Armenian, Syrian, and Turkish, and are often prepared in a spicy manner. It is widely believed that Urfa is the birthplace of many dishes, including raw kibbé (çiğ köfte), which according to the legend, was crafted by the prophet Abraham from ingredients he had at hand. At Urfa Bistro we aim to use local products to create dishes as same as prepared in the city of Urfa.
