Laurel Glen Vineyard
Laurel Glen Vineyard, LLC is a renowned winery located in Glen Ellen, Sonoma Valley, dedicated to producing exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon wines. With a focus on organic farming practices, Laurel Glen Vineyard prides itself on offering a unique terroir that results in wines of unparalleled intensity, complexity, and balanced acidity. The vineyard's elevated location on Sonoma Mountain shields the vines from Pacific ocean winds, allowing for a slower ripening period and concentrated flavors in their grapes.
Laurel Glen Vineyard's commitment to organic farming since 2014 has led to the cultivation of high-quality fruit without the use of herbicides, pesticides, or synthetic fertilizers. The vineyard's founder, Patrick Campbell, discovered a unique Cabernet Sauvignon clone on the property in 1977, now recognized as the Laurel Glen clone by the University of California at Davis. This exclusive lineage, combined with the cooler growing conditions of Sonoma Mountain, ensures exceptional fruit quality year after year.
With a history dating back to 1968, Laurel Glen Vineyard has garnered praise from critics and wine enthusiasts alike for its iconic Sonoma wines that rival Napa's best. The company's dedication to maintaining the health of their organic vineyard for future generations speaks to their values of sustainability and quality. As Laurel Glen Vineyard continues to expand its reach and offer seated tastings by appointment, the future outlook for this esteemed winery remains promising, with a focus on preserving its legacy of producing outstanding Cabernet Sauvignon wines.
