One of the coolest finds tucked away at Switchback Ridge—this incredible old Dodge, slowly being reclaimed by the property, complete with a massive bird’s nest under the hood. A little piece of history surrounded by rows of beautiful Cabernet. There’s always something interesting to discover when walking this vineyard. 🍇

Kelly Peterson, her father, and our winemaker Tom Garrett out at Switchback Ridge, checking in on the vineyard and the incredible fruit being grown here. Great vineyards start with great people, and we feel incredibly fortunate to work with both at Switchback. 🍇

There’s something special about watching it all come together—the food being carefully prepared, the wine flowing, and a table full of guests enjoying the experience. These are the moments our vineyard dinners are all about. 🍷
