“We are excited to integrate Hop Kiln’s historic estate and vineyards into our luxury wine portfolio,” said David Ricanati, President of Landmark Vineyards. “Hop Kiln’s vineyards further Landmark’s commitment to quality and match our dedication to producing handcrafted, ultra-premium wines from Sonoma County.“
As of today, one of Sonoma’s premier producers of luxury chardonnay and pinot noir, Landmark Vineyards, announced that it is purchasing Hop Kiln Vineyards in Sonoma. This winery has been growing its own wine grapes since the late 1800’s and is great for growing both chardonnay and pinot noir grapes. This acquisition increases their land by more than 240 acres of land within the Sonoma Coast.
Landmark sources grapes from the finest chardonnay and pinot noir vineyards in California, including Sonoma, Monterey and Santa Barbara counties, to produce wines that capture the uniqueness of each region.
At the bottom of the Mayacamas Mountain Range in the Sonoma Valley, Landmark Vineyards depicts the beauty of Sonoma County, and the view everyone dreams when hearing the word Sonoma. Since 1974, Landmark has been dedicated to producing handcrafted, ultra-premium chardonnay and pinot noir sourcing grapes from unique vineyard sites throughout California to create rich, balanced wines. Its signature wine, the Overlook Chardonnay, has appeared on The Wine Spectator Top 100 list seven times. Landmark’s wines may be purchased via select wine shops and restaurants, or directly from Landmark’s Tasting Room, on-line store, or through membership in the Wine Society. www.LandmarkWine.com
