1,000 acre Kimmel Ranch grows exceptional grapes in Potter Valley, Mendocino. Established in 1963, and planted in 1986 to chardonnay and merlot, Kimmel Vineyards debuted its first vintage of ultra-premium chardonnay in 2009. In 2010, Kimmel Vineyards added a 2007 Merlot to the line up. Small production and extremely high quality are the hallmark of Kimmel Vineyards wines, which are made by winemaker Bruce Regalia. The winery is currently seeking buyers for 100 tons of its 2010 chardonnay grapes. Interested parties should contact gary@kimmelvineyards.com
