12 Ridges Vineyard

12 Ridges Vineyard

A Cool Climate Winery On the Blue Ridge

The terroir of 12 Ridges is well suited to make high-quality wines and has potential to make exceptional sparkling wines using the Traditional Method originating from the Champagne, France region. ​

Our high altitude at 3,300', a permeable and stony soil low in clay, cooler temperatures as well as lower humidity, all combine to give 12 Ridges an extraordinary opportunity for our chosen varietals to thrive. ​

Our sparkling wines will be complemented by other chardonnay, riesling, pinot gris, and pinot noir wines.
