In 2010, we purchased our 12 acre farm situated between the Chiricahua and Dragoon Mountains in Southeastern Arizona outside of Willcox. The small vineyard was planted in 1997.
At 4300 feet in elevation, our high desert site exhibits a continental climate yielding warm summers with a large diurnal temperature swing of 30˚ to 50˚F, and cold winters. Our vineyard soil is composed of Sonoita Sandy Loam, a well drained, rocky soil. The subsoil is extraordinary with limestone rock 4 feet below the surface, renowned throughout the world for grape development.
Currently, we grow Malvasia Bianca, Nebbiolo, Sangiovese, Sagrantino, and Syrah.
