The Vinyard

Acreage
The current vineyard is 22 acres. There are 12 more acres being prepared for vines in the future.

Vine Spacing
The original 5 acres are spaced at 5' by 10'.

We have since decided that other spacing arrangements for our cool climate will result in higher brix (sugar) levels. We now plant 4', 5', and 6' by 12' depending on the variety and its vigor.

Irrigation
Twelve acres are automated drip irrigation and ten acres are furrow irrigation.

Varitals

Reds
Cabernet Sauvignon
Cabernet Franc
Merlot
Pinot Nior
Lemberger (an Austrian vinifera)

Whites
Chardonnay
Gewurztraminer
