Ampelos has been a family endeavor from the start…. initially “corporate folks”, we loved getting away to the Sta. Rita Hills on weekends and dreamt of one day planting our own vineyard and making wines. A cancelled meeting on the morning of September 11, 2001 helped us to realize that someday was today!

Ampelos is the greek word for “vine” chosen because we believe that all “great wines start in the vineyard”. We employ biodynamic farming practices, with rich cover crops, our own compost, elimination of herbicides and in general good, environmentally conscientious farming -- one of the first vineyards in the United States to be certified sustainable, organic and biodynamic. We are truly a small boutique winery producing about 3500 cases a year focusing on Viognier, Rose of Syrah, Pinot Noir, Syrah and Grenache.

One of the best things about being winemakers is our opportunity to meet and share our love for wine with others. Come and visit us and join us for a glass of wine.

  Best Books of the Year

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
