Vineyard
Our
unique microclimate at Agate Ridge lends itself beautifully to Rhone varieties.
Our southern facing slopes provide maximum exposure to the sun and the
1350 ft. elevation produce warm daytime temperatures that are perfect for
the growth and maturation of our varietals. With the wonderful diversity
of stand alone varieties and blending varieties, we plans to establish
ourselves as an estate vineyard, giving us complete creative control over
quality, quantity and characteristics of our wines. We have taken a lot
of time and consideration in our selections.
