Welcome to R & W Vineyards where we produce small, hand-crafted lots of fine red wines. The winery and estate vineyard are located on Montebello Ridge in the Santa Cruz Mountains at an elevation of 1895 feet where the cooler mountain temperatures give our grapes the long ripening season required for full, rich flavor development. We capture this rich flavor in a full-bodied wine that is backed by soft tannins developed during fermentation and barrel aging.

We have 2 1100-liter and 2 300-liter, stainless steel, temperature-controlled fermenters for a total capacity of 250 cases. All the power for the vineyard and winery operations is supplied by a photovoltaic solar system (12 KW) on the winery roof.
