Vineyard samplings...
J. Rochioli, Little Hill
A couple dozen barrels of this amazing wine were produced from the Little Hill vineyard which swells above the estate’s West Block. There, the soils are limited and rocky which imparts a uniqueness to this wine. Yield: 2.8 tons per acre.

Kosta Browne, Koplen Vineyard
The first crop of fruit from the Koplen Vineyard was in 2002 with a whopping 1½ tons of fruit from 5 acres. Kosta Browne chose to produce a vineyard designate wine from this land planted entirely to Dijon clone 667, in the middle of the Russian River Valley on a fairly low lying area.

Patz & Hall, Chenoweth Ranch
The Chenoweth vineyard was originally cultivated as an apple orchard on the far western edge of the Russian River appellation. This beautiful 7-acre vineyard is located in Green Valley, one of the region’s coolest areas, and is farmed exclusively for Patz & Hall.
