Medford, OR 97501

soil would help to concentrate the flavor of the fruit, and Medford has the
perfect climate to encourage the Merlot vines to produce an excellent wine
grape.
They planted 5 acres of vines in 1997, growing merlot was the first step. Today
they have 22 acres with Merlot, Syrah, Petite Sirah and Roussanne grapes.
