Merlot grapes among the best in California, hillside grown with our east-west Livermore Valley growing season nearly identical to Napa and Sonoma's north-south. Nightly San Francisco bay breezes provide cool-down, morning fog, followed by afternoon heat to make the best Merlot, for award winning wine.
Wine made from our Merlot has won medals and mentions including golds and double golds over the years at numerous commercial and home winemaker competitions including the SF Chronicle Wine Competition. Impressive for a 16 acre vineyard, family owned and farmed since 1992.
8 wire lyre trellising for optimal air flow and speckled sunlight.
Professionally managed, with constant owner supervision, hand-harvested into 1/2T macrobins, VERY clean pick.
Choose from small quantities up to the full 20T.
We love working with home winemakers too, don't hesitate to call.
