...or winery) in Napa, California? Information of distributor or manufacturer for Crane Lake Cellars will be helpful too.

There is no Crane Lake Cellars. It is just a "marketing name". The actual Winery is the Bronco Wine Company, owned by Fred T., Joseph S. and John Franzia Jr. and ranked fourth largest U.S. Wine Company.

Give me a sec to get you a few links.

There are two other "Crane" wineries. "Crane Family" and "Crane Canyon", but they are independant wineries and have no connection to Crane Lake Cellars. (as far as I know).

You can give Bronco Wine Company a call and check - they have a toll-free number. and should be able to tell you a distributor.

Funny how they use a Napa address, being that Bronco has been under attack by all of the legitamite Napa wineries that pay the huge prices to grow and produce wines in Napa that resent a bulk wine producer buying cheap bulk juice from all over and labelling it with names containing Napa and Rutherford when the crap inside has nothing to do with the AVA's they hint at. They ruined the industry starting with a surplus year with "2 buck chuck" pricing (per alcohol content) below boones, olde english 800 and Colt 45. For shame.
