About Our Vineyards

The Rosenquist vineyard is one of our three estate Mt. Veeder ranches. The elevation: a lofty 1,500-1,600 feet above sea level, creating unique and rugged growing conditions which require vines to work to produce low yields of high quality fruit.  The vineyard is beautiful, with steeply terraced vineyard rows wrapping around the mountainside.
