We produce classically styled, terroir-driven wines reflecting the unique heritage and character of our site. The Snowden family came to the ranch in 1955. Originally a 160 acre homestead, the property has a grape-growing history dating back to 1878. During the decades of our stewardship, four generations of Snowdens have been privileged to walk the woods and vineyards of this lovely and secluded place.
Our ninth vintage of this vineyard-designated, terroir-driven Cabernet Sauvignon from the Los Ricos Vineyard, a very small, east-facing patch at the southwest corner of the ranch, less than a hundred yards east of the St. Helena Appellation -- an intriguing, nuanced sibling to our Brothers Cabernet
Rich and approachable, the "22 Ranch is a terroir-driven wine produced from Cabernet Sauvignon grown in our Lost Orchard and Pool blocks, blended with Merlot and Petit Verdot
The second vintage of this new offering from the Snowden Cousins -- a bright and bouncy Merlot from high in the Santa Cruz Mountains -- produced from organic grapes following the highest standards of sustainability.
