JACKSON FAMILY BUYS INTO NEW AVA
JACKSON FAMILY BUYS INTO NEW AVA
Jan 3, 2013 6
(TheDrinksBusiness) - Jackson Family Vineyards has completed the latest in a series of major acquisitions with the purchase of an 877-acre property in California’s recently created Pine Mountain-Cloverdale Peak AVA. Previously owned by the Seghesio family, no vineyards are currently planted on the estate but it is thought that more than 280 acres on the hilly property offer a gradient suitable for viticulture.
Bordering Alexander Valley in northern Sonoma, the Pine Mountain-Clover Peak AVA in Mendocino County was created at the end of 2011 and claims to be one of California’s highest elevation grape growing regions. Red Bordeaux varieties dominate, with just 230 acres of the 4,750-acre AVA currently under vine.
