So... to achieve the high sugar content we rely on in our varieties, we achieve through the Arizona sun. the climate and the soil together is referred to as the terroir, which sums up the environment of the vines. In adddition, the arid conditions hinder the development of mold and fungus on the vines and the bright sun and cloudless skies over Arizona provide more thann enough to feed the vines and drive sugar in the high twenties on the Brix meter.
In the higher elevations of the property, we are growing syrah and merlot, and in the lower portion zinfandel and chardonnay. There is great sun exposure, and currently we have approx 4125 plants planted. We produce full bodied, flavorful reds, and lean whites in small batches, giving individual attention to every barrel. We have produced 650+ cases in 2007 and our goal is to produce 750+ cases in 2008. At the moment about 4 acres are planted and we are expanding year by year.
Every year the stock in the vineyard Matures, elevating the quality and the production level, and allowing us to create a ever more perfect Arizona wine.
