Growing up, Rodney's father farmed grapes, cherries and kiwi which inspired the entreprenurial spirit of the third-generation Lodi grower to one day farm his own way. In 1985, he and his wife, Gayla, bought 40 acres of Old Vine Zinfandel-the same land where the winery sits today. The first plot was on Peltier Road, just north of Lodi. Instead of naming the Winery after themselves, they honored the road that led them to those gnarly vines and would eventually become the winery’s foundation.
Rod Spent 15 years building his reputation for quality grapes while growing his custom harvest business. A year with a surplus of grapes brought on the idea to build a custom crush facility, and a Best of Class award at the California State Fair for a 2005 Petite Sirah began the bottle side of their business. Today, they farm over 1,000 acres of Estate Grown, Certified Sustainable grapes with a focus on growing for quality.
Today, they own multiple vineyards:
Alpine/Realty: 162 acres | Dustin: 47 | De Vries: 122 acres | Marengo: 66 acres | Kennefick: 24 acres | Lockeford: 251 | Coyote Creek: 180 acres | Hade Ranch: 140 acres
And they grow a wide variety of grapes:
Chardonnay: 154 acres | Pinot Grigio: 43 | Sauvignon Blanc: 89 acres | Chenin Blanc: 13 acres | Viognier: 20 acres | Vermentino: 20 | Pinot Noir: 98 acres | Syrah: 54 acres | Petite Sirah: 55 acres | Zinfandel: 132 acres | Cabernet Sauvignon: 149 acres | Teroldego: 32 acres
Dark fruit with hints of blackberry cobbler, graphite, and sandalwood. Mostly grown on warmer sites of the Walla Walla Valley including our estate, Bob Healy Vineyard. Beautiful tannins that are lush and have a strong core that broadens out last minute to an ultra-long finish. A really pleasing and luxurious wine.
Review:
Ripe blue and blackberry notes with floral quality, minty cherries and elegant oak spices undertones. Chocolatey texture on the palate, dense and concentrated, rounded. Dense core of dark plummy fruit supported by a refreshing acidity.
