Open: Year-round

Fog Crest Vineyard was established in 1998 in the Russian River Valley American Viticultural Area (AVA) of Sonoma County, California. The Estate has a long tradition in agriculture, formerly raising hops and apples. The rolling hills with a south/east exposure provide for both excellent drainage and the full morning sun so necessary for the production of premium wine grapes in the cool Russian River Valley. The vineyard soils are dominated by the Wilson Grove formation, a sandstone ridge that was beachfront property three to five million years ago.

This fine-grained, marine sandstone yields the locally famous Goldridge - Sebastopol sandy loam soils long favored by the area's agricultural community. These influences combine to create a premium wine growing terroir that has made the Russian River Valley famous. The Vineyard was planted with two carefully selected Dijon clones of Chardonnay, and a combination of three Dijon clones and two heritage clones of Pinot Noir.
