Our Vineyards

Pillow Rd Vineyard consists of two vineyard plots located in Sebastopol on the southern edge of the Russian River Valley. In total, both vineyards are planted to 22 acres of vines, of which 20 acres are Pinot Noir and two acres are Chardonnay. For premium fruit, and to reflect the true finesse of California Pinot Noir, the vineyards include clones 4, 115, 777, Swan and Calera.

Situated only 15 miles from the coast, the Russian River Valley's calm foggy mornings, clear afternoons and cool breezy nights provide an idyllic climate for growing Pinot Noir. Pillow Rd's vineyards are nourished by the rich Gold Ridge sandy loam soils. The sand allows the soils to drain quickly during a wet spring, while the loam holds on to a marginal amount of water to self irrigate the vines throughout the growing season, without either over-invigorating or stressing the vines.
