Chandelle Winery

Family owned and operated, Chandelle has offered premium California wines featuring aviation art editions since 1986 when the company was founded by Robert’s parents, Bruce and Barbara Arnold, and myself. Our wines are bottled in very limited quantities and are available directly from us.
Located in the center of California’s Wine Country, Chandelle takes it’s name from an aviation term used to describe a 180-degree change in direction and an increase in altitude. This maneuver is a classic test of aircraft performance and pilot skill requiring a smooth touch on the stick and rudder.

The Arnold Family has been part of the world of flight since 1911 when Army Lt. (later Five-Star General) Hap Arnold learned to fly from the Wright Brothers. After serving as WWII Chief of the Army Air Forces, he retired to our family farm here in the Sonoma Valley.

Please try our wines. We’re sure you will agree with our friends from coast-to-coast: they are delicious and make wonderful gifts.
All the Best,
Robert & Kathy Arnold
