There's good—then there's Spicy Vines good.
The Vineyards
We are fortunate to be located among some of the finest grape growing regions in the world. Each of our vineyard sites provides a unique combination of soil type, elevation, age, exposure and natural influences, giving us a range of flavors and variety to our wines.
Burnett Vineyards, a 98-year old vineyard in the heart of the Dry Creek Valley produces Grenache, Zinfandel, Carignane and Cinsault.
Consistently yielding beautifully complex grapes with undeniable flavors, this vineyard is used for many of our most popular wines, such as “Zin Master” Old Vine Zinfandel, “EDGE” Red Blend, “Violet Rose” Rosé and our “Original Blend” Red Spiced Wine.
Almost a century old, the magnificent head-trained vines take on a character or their own. In their prime months of development, just before harvest, many grow to reach over six feet tall.
Working with this vineyard is, in itself, preserving a piece of history.
Our Bordeaux varietals such as, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petite Verdot, Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc are all sourced from Pine Mountain Vineyards on Pine Mountain. Located northeast of Cloverdale, Pine Mountain is also home to where our wines are produced.
Pine Mountain Vineyards span the upper western flank of Pine Mountain. The vineyards range between 2,200 to 2,800 feet in elevation, reliably delivering fruit of intense color and flavor, due to such high-elevation farming.
High-elevation viticulture exudes unique micro-climate characteristics for the grapes, such as cooler daytime and warmer nighttime temperatures, longer sunlight hours, and cooling oceanic breezes.
