We moved to Sonoma County from Texas in 2013. We planted the vineyard in 2014 with cabernet sauvignon (mountain cab, specifically, as we are on the side of a mountain!). We brought horses with us, and now have sheep and goats on the hillsides, which is wonderful to listen to them calling to each other during the day!
We love the property. It's beautiful and full of hundreds of birds. As a matter of fact, we have bird houses on many of the vineyard end posts! At night, you can hear the Great Horned Owls calling to each other. It's common to see deer, wild turkeys, and other wildlife. While you're here, you'll feel like you've stepped away from the city, into a peaceful oasis, even though you are just about 10 minutes from amenities like restaurants, grocery stores, wineries, and much more.
The property is positioned with easy access to Santa Rosa, Sonoma, Calistoga, St Helena and Napa. You can also plan to spend a day at the coast, which is a lovely drive.
