In 2009, we embarked on a journey. We set sail and pointed our ship to southeastern Arizona, where grape vines thrive in the sun and soil of the high desert. We landed at a place under the sky islands and planted a vineyard. The wines from this area burst with sun-splashed fruit and an abundance of fertile earth. Look for our first wine coming this autumn. Come pour a glass and join us on this voyage.
