The Vineyard

Riboli Doctor's Vineyard

Located in the middle stretch of SLH, this vineyard experiences warmer temperatures and higher winds. Wide row spacing in Doctor’s (11 feet by 7 feet) also offers greater sun exposure, and the fog burns off early in the day at this site.

Elevation: 320 to 720 feet above sea level Drainage: well-drained rocky sub-soils Soil Types: formed from alluvial materials, mostly Chualar Loam, with pockets of Placentia Sandy Loam and Arroyo Seco Gravelly Sandy Loam.
