At Black Ridge Vineyards, our philosophy is simple: do whatever it takes to make great wine.We craft limited production, award-winning, 100% estate grown wines. When we started Black Ridge Vineyards we intentionally planted vines in excess of our production needs. We did this to ensure a sufficient varietal mix to meet our blending requirements without ever having to purchase grapes offsite. We plan on remaining small since we value using only estate grown fruit.Black Ridge Vineyards is on 80 pristine acres, overlooking the majestic slopes of the Santa Cruz Mountains only three miles outside of downtown Los Gatos. The estate's elevation and geographic orientation is ideal for protection from the harsh coastal winds and lingering fog to receive a full day of sun. The vineyard microclimate also benefits from the Lexington Reservoir half a mile below. These perfect growing conditions are instrumental in producing high-quality, highly approachable wines.Our vineyard manager and winemaker, Bill Brosseau, brings his remarkable passion and expertise into all aspects of winemaking. The outcome is our rich, floral whites and our decadent reds. It is the inherent, discernible attributes of our vineyard bring reflected in each of our wines, showcasing the unique history of our land. We hope you enjoy our wines as much as we enjoy the entire process of getting our grapes into your glass. Cheers!
