MOHRHARDT RIDGE

ELEV 1400 FEET FT. / PACIFIC OCEAN 5.0 MI.

The Mohrhardt Ridge Vineyard is located in the Fort Ross – Seaview AVA, a region known primarily for its incredible Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vineyards. And while we grow Chardonnay at this remote site, the Cabernet Sauvignon is unique for this AVA. The vineyard is perched high on a ridge a couple of miles inland from our Estate Vineyard, which provides just enough additional warmth to ripen Cabernet Sauvignon. Discovering 30 year old vines in this area, we couldn’t resist the opportunity to embrace the true coastal history of the Médoc by farming the vineyard and making wine from this little gem.
