George and Greta's dream: As "simple" retirement project, convert 50 bare acres into a vineyard with grapes of exceptional quality, make money, gain recognition, live forever. The reality (for the entire family) some 30 years later?

The Family Vineyard

The ranch consists of fifty hillside acres in Sonoma County`s Valley of the Moon. The soil is a rocky loam consisting of poorly sorted, volcanic debris, stones, boulders, sand and clay layers with about 20 inches of topsoil underlain with more rocks and boulders and eventually volcanic andesite. This is not your typical garden soil but when properly managed lean rocky soils like this can produce wine grapes with unusually great flavors. Our Sauvignon Blanc is planted on gentle north facing slopes. The Zinfandel and Merlot are planted on a gently sloping old erosion surface high above the valley floor.

Rocky vineyard
The intensely rocky, volcanic soils of Indian Springs Ranch are part of the unique terroir that is captured in MacLeod Family Vineyard wines.
