Our Philosophy
BIODYNAMIC FARMING AND SUSTAINABLE WINEMAKING PRACTICES
On an idyllic twenty-acre organic farm in the Russian River Valley, visitors enjoy a
certified Biodynamic® estate thriving with Sonoma’s agricultural bounty. Guests are
treated to limited release offerings of DeLoach’s vineyard-designate wines, each with
as little as fifty cases produced, while enjoying tours of the Biodynamic garden as well
as picnic grounds, cheeses from local Sonoma purveyors, and an intimate look at the
winery’s Burgundian winemaking techniques.
About us
As a pioneering producer and winegrower of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Zinfandel in Sonoma’s Russian River Valley, DeLoach Vineyards has been experimenting with and perfecting the best combinations of soil, rootstock, and clones for over three decades. In 2003, the Boisset family brought two generations of sustainable winemaking experience from Burgundy, France to California’s Russian River Valley.
Organic and Biodynamic Farming
At DeLoach Vineyards, we consider ourselves stewards of the land, with a profound responsibility to pass along a clean environment and revitalized, healthy soil to future generations. We take to heart the Native American proverb that “We do not inherit this land from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children.”
Winemaking Techniques
At DeLoach Vineyards, we focus on small-lot winemaking, giving exceptional care and attention to our Russian River Valley, O.F.S. and Vineyard Designate wines. Our passion is Pinot Noir – the noble variety of Burgundy that demands a delicate, labor-intensive process to showcase the exceptional terroir and complexity of the Russian River Valley and beyond.
Vineyards
We committed to the conversion of 17 acres of estate vineyards from sustainable to biodynamic farming methods, which involves the use of cover crops, the application of biodynamic specific preparations and composts, and the maintenance of biodiversity within the estate. As of December 2009, Demeter granted us our biodynamic certification for both our estate vineyards and 1-acre garden.
Furthermore are honored to work with numerous growers between Sonoma, Marin, and Lake Counties to produce our Vineyard Designate and OFS wines.
