Since 1883, five generations of our family have handcrafted fine wines that express
the very best of our vineyards and winemaking expertise. Our Beyer Ranch has
historically been a premier location for Zinfandel. The vineyards are planted
on carefully selected sites of sloping benches that lead to the banks of the Arroyo
del Valle and Arroyo Mocho streams. Grapes from these Zinfandel vineyards
produce luscious wines with deep richness.

Each variety was fermented separately in upright stainless steel fermenters and
pumped over twice daily. The wine was pressed on the skins after 7-12 days.
The wine was aged in a combination of French and American oak barrels for 14
months.

The climate is characterised by high temperatures all year round, very little rainfall and a wide temperature range between night and day, which has a positive influence on the quality of the grapes.
