Planted by Dick Graff on a northwest-facing slope on limestone and decomposed granite soils, the vineyard lies within sight of the Pinnacalitos, near the East entrance to Pinnacles National Park. At some 1800' elevation, we often pick this venerable vineyard starting at 2am under the stars of the Milky Way and the Perseid Meteor showers, to a soundtrack of coyotes on the prowl. Farmed for many years by another Chalone legend, Bill Brosseau (and previously known as the Antle Vineyard), the vineyard was purchased a few years ago, and now is farmed by Kurt Gollnick and Janet Rogers.
