Rossi Ranch Vineyard

Sonoma Valley, Sonoma 

 

This heritage vineyard showcases amazing terroir. Originally planted by legendary vintner, Carlo Rossi in 1910, Rossi Ranch is steeped in Sonoma Valley history. The original vineyard was home to several varietials including Alicante Bouschet and Grand Noir that were intermixed throughout its tracts.

It is a gorgeous, warm site. Its hills, rolling rows, and exposures are perfect for Rhônes. The vineyard is wild — surrounded by a mix of oak, pine, and fir trees.

In 2012, my friend Phil Cotturi resurrected its old vines and began organic farming that further develops the vineyard's greatness.
