Winemaker Notes
Chalk Hill's 1,200 acre estate is the site of the only 100% estate bottled winery in the Chalk Hill Appellation. All Chalk Hill wines are hand-crafted from grapes grown exclusively on the estate. Each varietal is matched to specific sites and microclimates, and traditional winemaking techniques are utilized to capture the diverse characteristics of each vineyard block, resulting in wines of distinction and elegance.

Perhaps no other winery captures the casual luxury of Sonoma County better than Chalk Hill Estate. Founded nearly four decades ago, this spectacular 1300-acre property features 300 acres of vineyards, wilderness areas, winery, hospitality center, culinary garden, residence, stables, equestrian pavilion, sports fields, fishing and swimming ponds, and guest houses.
The winery's vineyards are thoughtfully woven through the native foliage and contoured to fit the intricate terrain. More than two-thirds of the Chalk Hill Estate remains uncultivated. The higher elevations offer stunning views of the Russian River Valley to the west and the Mayacamas Mountains to the east.
