Collier Creek is really more of a state of mind, a paddle away from memory lane, and just around the creek bend from the past – A time when farmland ran as far as the eye could see. Nestled between the gold country of the Sierra Foothills and the San Francisco Delta waters lie the heart of the Lodi Appellation, where these fine wines are grown and produced.
All of our 1,000 acres are farmed sustainably according to Lodi Rules, a third-party certified program created for the Lodi Appellation by a committee of scientists, growers, wildlife biologists, and farm advisors. These are stringent rules that we currently farm by and have been farming by since our great-grandparents began growing wine grapes. It is the care for the land, air, water, habitat, and worker with a long-term vision focusing on farming for the future of the land. We were one of the first growers to receive certification for this program.
For us, sustainability isn’t only about honoring what’s best for the environment, it’s what’s necessary to adapt to an ever changing industry and to create a brighter future for generations to come.
