Wine made and bottled by the grape grower.

Full Definition

Estate bottled (or estate grown) indicates the winery grew the grapes, made the wine, and bottled it, all in the same appellation. In the US, both vineyard and winery must be in the same AVA. It suggests quality control from vine to bottle, though isn't itself a quality guarantee.
