Rancho Pequeño Vineyard is part of Bart and Daphne Araujo’s Oakville property on the valley floor’s east flank in the Vaca Mountains’ foothills.

The 10-acre vineyard was originally planted in 1985 and screams old-school Napa Cabernet: exposed south with very thin topsoils, warm and sunny afternoons, cool dusks and dawns and gentle sea breezes.

A touch warmer than the Ashes & Diamonds home vineyard in Oak Knoll, it is biodynamically farmed by two of Napa’s greatest land stewards under the guidance of A&D’s legendary viticulturist, Steve Matthiasson.

The soils are deep and loamy, washed down from the Vaca Mountains, resulting in a high water table and little need for irrigation.
