Then look no further, you can buy from our California vineyard. Kendric Vineyards is a small vigneron's operation and makes Pinot Noir, Viognier and Sangiovese.

Our Sangiovese comes from a 4 acre vineyard on my Mom’s Reward Ranch property in Amador County in the Shenandoah Valley of California AVA. Shenandoah Valley is in the Sierra Nevada foothills (south of Placerville and north of Sutter Creek). This vineyard is at about 1500’ elevation with rolling hill topography.

Daytime temperatures are warm. It is often in the nineties during the summer and we get spikes above 100 degrees several times each year. On the other hand, cool nights are the norm due to both the elevation and to breezes flowing up from the Delta. The wide diurnal temperature shifts produce ripe fruit balanced with good acidity.

Most of our neighbors grow Zinfandel, for which the Shenandoah Valley is best known. My Mom’s vineyard is Sangiovese which we planted in 1995 at the behest of our neighbors at Vino Noceto, who bought all our fruit for years. More recently, they have cut back on purchased fruit, and some of this vineyard's production became available for my use.
