The Loomis Basin, is formed by the American River and Folsom Lake (on the southeast), a ridge line on the northwest, and the upslope to the Sierra’s on the northeast, which closely resembles the terroir and climates of the Cotes du Rhone, Tuscany, and the northern Napa & Sonoma Valleys. A long growing season, hot summer days and cool nights, shallow foothill soils, and water for irrigation provide ideal conditions for production of mature fruit with character.

As our name implies, the winery and vineyard are located near Secret Ravine Creek, in the Loomis Basin. A significant portion of the grapes used to produce our wine comes from land that was a vineyard from 1870 – 1954. During that period they grew Zinfandel, Tokay, Mataro (Mouvedre) and Mission grapes. Today we grow Zinfandel, Syrah, Sauvignon Blanc, Barbera, and Sangiovese.

Good wine comes from good grapes. So our principal focus is directed to producing quality grapes from our vineyard and from those vineyards owned by our friends and neighbors who, coincidently, share our interest in quality wine and are within the Loomis Basin. Sustainable viticulture practices are employed, that is, minimal use of artificial fertilizers, insecticides, and traditional cultural practices in favor of organic materials, integrated pest management, and minimal cultural intrusion to the environment. Our efforts are directed to maximizing the full varietal character and terroir of grapes whose origins spring from regions similar to the Loomis Basin.
