Sierra Foothills

Lake County

Russian River Valley

Alexander Valley

Livermore Valley

Ridges and hills throughout the county have been formed by volcanic activity. Vineyards are planted on hillsides with a variety of different slopes to take advantage of the region’s weather patterns.

Lake County is a warm and dry region. Vineyard altitudes from 1,300 feet above sea level or higher offer cooling wind patterns during the evenings. Warm days are followed by much colder nights, ensuring a slower ripening period in which fruit can develop varietal character without sacrificing acidity.

Alexander Valley, located in the middle of Sonoma County, extends north of Healdsburg, California. The Russian River runs through the valley’s 22-mile length.

During the day, the Alexander Valley is one of the warmest areas in Northern California but experiences cool conditions at night. The region’s proximity to the Russian River creates early morning fog that covers the low-lying areas until giving way to the morning sun. These are ideal conditions for growing Cabernet Sauvignon.

Livermore’s gravel based soil and unique east-west orientation, separates the region from other winegrowing valleys. These conditions allow for the production of premium grapes. Vines must grow deep root systems to access water and nutrients. This stress will force the vineyard into producing rich, concentrated fruit.

Due to a reliable breeze from the San Francisco Bay, temperatures will fluctuate from afternoon to evening, with climates comparable to northern Napa Valley appellations such as St. Helena or Calistoga.
