We purchased the vineyard in 1998, looking for a lifestyle change. It was an opportunity to do something Rex had always dreamed of. Rex came from a farming background. When he was a boy he farmed his Grandparents farm in Yakima, Wa where they grew concord grapes for Welch's grape juice. 

We grow 5 varietals-Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay and new plantings of Zinfandel and Syrah. It is our desire to grow the best fruit possible and to produce quality wines from that fruit. So, the next time you are in Southern Oregon, come see us along the Applegate Valley Wine Trail! - Rex, Sandi, Rowdy & Waldo Garoutte
