Bradford Mountain
Bradford Mountain sits in Dry Creek Valley, Sonoma County's storied corner of the North Coast. The vineyard focuses on two grapes that thrive in this warm, well-drained terrain: Syrah and Zinfandel. The Grist Vineyard Syrah expresses the peppery structure and dark fruit character typical of the region's Syrah plantings, while the Grist Vineyard Zinfandel and the estate Zinfandel capture the variety's ripe berry intensity and spice. Both wines have drawn attention from major critics including Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, and Decanter. Dry Creek Valley's maritime influence and gravelly soils create conditions that favor these varietals, and Bradford Mountain's selections reflect the valley's signature style: bold, fruit-forward wines with the tannin backbone that defines serious Sonoma reds.
