Amongst ancient native American grinding stones and the trails once traversed by gold miners and outlaws, their vines thrive at 1400 feet elevation. Situated on the 38th parallel, akin to central Spain, their meticulous research led them to introduce unique varietals like Godello, Treixadura, and Mencia to the Sierra Foothills. Over a decade of sourcing, importing, and certifying has granted them exclusive ownership of these grapes, marking them as pioneers in introducing these varietals to the New World.
