The Story
This vineyard has sweeping sun exposures from southeast to northwest and sits at nearly 1,200-feet in elevation. It has nine distinct blocks of Zinfandel and each is harvested at different times and fermented separately to ensure the integrity and uniqueness of each block. The varied sun exposures, soil compositions, slopes and drainages make these sites a winemaking dream come true and are what make our Rockpile Ridge Zinfandel so spectacular.
About Mauritson Wines
Producer Story
The Mauritson family has been growing grapes in the Dry Creek Valley since 1868 when their great-great-great grandfather first planted vines in what is now the Rockpile appellation. Clay Mauritson was determined to add winemaking to the family business and released the inaugural Mauritson Wines vintage in 1998. Today, the family still manages many acres of vineyards across Sonoma County. They produce boutique wines, using only select vineyards that truly exhibit a sense of place.
