Vineyard 7 & 8 was purchased in 1999 by John & Louise Steffens. The vineyards, originally planted in 1985, are located at the top of Spring Mountain at the 2020 foot elevation. Currently the vineyards are comprised of eight acres of cabernet sauvignon and four acres of chardonnay. The vision of Vineyard 7 & 8 is to make truly great wines with elegance, finesse, balance and longevity expressing the wonderful terroir of Spring Mountain.
Luc Morlet, formely the Director of Winemaking at Peter Micahel Winery, joined the team starting with the 2007 harvest. Taking on the role of Winemaker, Luc’s attention to detail and experience with Bordeaux style wines will become a great asset in helping us craft the highest quality wines from our vineyards.
In 2006, Wesley Steffens, previously the cellarmaster at Harlan Estate, began overseeing the management of the new winery as well as take on the role of Assistant Winemaker.
In June of 2007, Vineyard 7 & 8 welcomed Alissa Flynn, formerly a Manager at Bouchon, to develop our Hospitality and Direct Sales programs.
Pete Richmond of Silverado Farming Company also joined the team in 2006 to manage operations in the vineyards and begin working on the development of new vineyards.
The new state-of-the-art winery on the property allows us to control all of the winemaking operations to an even greater degree than before. Construction of the winery and aging cave for Vineyard 7 & 8 began in 2004 and was used for the first time with the 2006 vintage. One more step in our quest.
