“From water, comes wine” – never has this been more true than with The Divining Rod wines. By giving life to countless vineyards across California, Marc Mondavi quite literally “turns water into wine.” He possesses the grape growing and winemaking skills and knowledge that come from growing up in the Napa Valley, as a key member of America’s foremost wine family. But Marc’s “sixth sense” for water divining (also called water witching or dowsing) and connection with the land, put him on another level of winemaking.

That’s why we say that his Divining Rod wines are more than natural, they’re supernatural. The Divining Rod wines were first produced in 2012. Bottlings include an Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, a Santa Lucia Highlands Chardonnay and a red blend from Lodi called Divine Red.

Academy Award winner Russell Crowe makes his directorial debut with ‘The Water Diviner’ an epic and inspiring tale of one man’s life-changing journey of discovery. Crowe also stars in the movie as an Australian farmer who in 1919 goes in search of his three missing sons, last known to have fought against the Turks in the bloody Battle of Gallipoli. Arriving in Istanbul, he is thrust into a vastly different world where he encounters others who have suffered their own loses in the conflict. With seemingly insurmountable obstacles in his path, he must travel across the battle-scarred Turkish landscape to find the truth…and his own peace.
