The Rich Heritage of Mont La Salle Altar Wines

VOT I VE LIGHT STAND

In 1930, The Christian Brothers were looking for a site to relocate their winery that had been in operation since the early 1880’s. They constructed a mission style complex on the site and in 1932, christened it Mont La Salle after St. John Baptist de la Salle, the French priest who founded their religious order. The Brothers successfully marketed commercial wines for the next 49 years, under The Christian Brothers’ label with profits supporting their many schools, the formation program for new Brothers, and the care of aging Brothers. During this time, Brother Timothy Diener gained a name as one of the great winemakers of California and was cellar master for more than 45 years. Mont La Salle, the oldest continuing producer of altar wines in the U.S., the most widely recognized and most preferred altar wine, a name you can trust.
