Wolf Mountain Vineyards was established in 1999, with the preparation of our 25 acre estate for grape growing. In 2000, the vines were planted by hand and the winery construction began. We finished construction of the 8,000 square foot gravity flow winery in spring of 2001. Our first vintage of approximately 1000 cases was produced that fall, using locally grown fruit.
Our vineyard is situated on top of Wolf Mountain at an 1,800 foot elevation, presenting a truly unique viticultural site. This mountain top estate was selected after an extensive search, focused on finding the best site in which red wine grapes could be grown, instead of looking at the number of vines we could plant.
Wolf Mountain has 5000 vines planted by hand which are divided into small vineyard lots. The property runs due east to west with south facing slopes. This maximizes sun exposure to vines and clusters, producing the ripest fruit possible. Our 1,800 foot elevation provides sun soaked days and cool mountain nights, creating the perfect grape growing environment. After all, wine is really made in the vineyard.
We grow Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Mourvedre, Tannat, Petite Verdot, Malbec and Touriga Nacional, which we blend to produce our award-winning Estate Red Wines. Our estate reserve Claret, which is a Cabernet and Mourvedre blend, and our unique Sunset Dry Rose are also estate grown. Our southwest facing vineyard slopes are more condusive for growing red wine grapes. We contract our white wine grape varieties to neighboring growers.
