Odette Estate Winery / Signum Architecture

Posted in Architecture - Winery/Cantine by * FORMAKERS

This third winery in the Plumpjack portfolio is envisioned as a producer of elegant, feminine wines—a character mirrored in the architectural design.

From the side, the structure gracefully curves like a swan’s wing, drawing inspiration from Odette, the ethereal figure in Tchaikovsky’s ballet Swan Lake.

The winery’s production facility introduces an organic counterpoint to the sleek, contemporary hospitality buildings already on-site.

Its circular footprint nestles into a natural cove, embraced on three sides by hills.

A living roof appears to rise gently from the earth, unveiling a delicate veil of perforated aluminum that shades the work pad at the front of the structure.

Behind this screen, tall, sculptural panels in dark, flowing forms can be slid open, offering a playful, curated entry while discreetly separating public space from the working areas of the winery and offices.

Built to LEED Gold standards, the project incorporates three repurposed shipping containers as office space, underscoring the owners’ strong commitment to sustainable winemaking.
