About Our Vineyard
We are a small family owned vineyard nestled in the Sierra Foothills in northern California. The proximity to lakes such as Folsom Lake coupled with cool breezes provides Mediterranean-style weather. It is the unique terroir of the area, combined with an impeccable microclimate reminiscent of Italy, which allows us to grow some of the best Italian varietals in the region.
