Exploring more about Danica Patrick's wine brand, Somnium

Danica Patrick's wine brand, named Somnium, translates directly into "dream" in the Latin language— encapsulating her vision for her winery. Located in St. Helena, California, within the Howell Mountain AVA, the 24-acre vineyard sits at elevations ranging from 1,045 to 1,375 feet (305 to 419 meters).

Patrick launched the venture in 2009, enlisting renowned winemaker Aaron Pott to help her acquire and develop the property. The vineyard’s first grapes were harvested in 2014, and in 2017, Somnium released its first estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon.

Since then, the winery has expanded its presence, introducing a Napa Valley rosé and a Rutherford Sauvignon Blanc, crafted by French-born winemaker Julien Fayard. Notably in 2019, Somnium achieved organic status.

Beyond Somnium, Patrick has also made a name for herself in the fashion industry with her athleisure brand, Warrior by Danica Patrick. The collection, launched in partnership with G-III Apparel Group in 2017, is inspired by Native American mythology that Patrick encountered while growing up in Arizona.
