Additional Information

Farmed by John and Jan Upton, the twenty-five acres under vine at Upton Vineyard are all CCOF certified organic and were planted in the 1960s on the characteristic loam soils. Varietals include Sauvignon Blanc, Petite Sirah, and Sangiovese. The climate of the upland Redwood Valley AVA experiences more of a diurnal temperature shift than surrounding appellations due to a gap in the coastal ridge which funnels cool Pacific air currents through to the Valley. This leads to a more gradual ripening of refined and complex fruit.
something
Subject to Change Wine Co. exists as a canvas for exploration of terroir and natural wine in Northern California. STC was founded on a true love for drinking wine, and the many people and experiences that come as a result. In a place where wine production has recently been marked by rules and rigor, there’s a new movement of free thinking producers. We’re proud to be part of a revolution defined by experimentation – where we don’t need to conform to a certain archetype and wine can feel exciting again. We source fruit exclusively from organic or biodynamic growers with whom we have a symbiotic working relationship. Mostly, we focus on making wines that we like to drink, which can be on a spectrum from fun and whimsical to serious and intellectual (we like to think those things are not mutually exclusive depending on context). The wines are fresh and often offbeat, just how we like it.
