Inscription.
The design of the winery was inspired by the Mission Inn in Riverside and built by John Klusman and M.E. Post in 1910. From 1912 to 1962, Garrett and Company produced wine, except during Prohibition, at which time Virginia Dare grape concentrate was produced. Only the grape crusher building and the tower portion are original and stand among the commercial and retail office buildings of the complex.
