Quivira Vineyards
California | Sonoma | Dry Creek Valley
Certified Organic & Biodynamic since 2005
This small, family-owned winery comprises four distinct vineyards in the Dry Creek appellation and produces 100 percent estate-bottled Zinfandel, Sauvignon Blanc and several Rhône varietals. Owners Pete and Terri Kight believe a holistic, sustainable approach to farming leads to the most vibrant, flavorful fruit. Quivira has been a Demeter Certified Biodynamic and Organic estate since 2005. Its facilities are further enhanced by a solar-powered winery and a restored salmon and trout-spawning creek. A Biodynamic garden and free-range chickens provide produce and eggs to local farmers’ markets and restaurants.In crafting Quivira wines, winemaker and grower Steven Canter employs artisan techniques such as native yeast fermentation, large oak foudres, basket press and barrel-to-barrel racking. The potential of any great wine comes from the site and the season, once off the vine, it’s a matter of how much of that potential we can capture.
