Vineyards
Our vineyards span from south Hopland to Redwood Valley, with our home ranch located in Northern Ukiah on the Westside of HWY 101. The terroir ranges from rich, red volcanic soil to gravely loam. We specialize in variety and quality, growing a little bit of everything. From hearty, hillside cabernet sauvignon, which loves our warm inland temps, to our old vine carignane that was planted over 100 years ago when the ranch was a Spanish land grant, only a small portion of our fruit goes into our own label.
For over 45 years, we've provided our fruit to wineries in nearby Napa and Sonoma counties, as well as to winemakers here in Mendocino County. Our wines, as well as theirs, have gone on to win awards, receive critical success, and capture the hearts (and tastebuds) of customers across the United States. Because we truly believe great wines are born in the vineyard, we spend a lot of time in ours. In fact, we live a stone's throw from where we work. The connection we have to this soil is unmatched.
