Basic Info
This land is the source of our vision. Eighteen years ago on the top of Spring Mountain, we purchased a plot of rugged, untamed ground on a former stagecoach route where vines had been tended by early settlers. With respect for the land foremost in our minds, we returned the rolling hillsides to vineyards. Two hundred wild acres with sweeping views contain twenty acres of obsessively farmed vineyard blocks, each with its own distinctive imprint. Under the guidance of winemakers Francoise Peschon and Graham Wehmeier, we strive to make a Cabernet Sauvignon that is faithful to the diversity of this impressive land.
