Property Description
Thirteen acres of producing Rhone varietals with a finely detailed, architecturally significant home. Excellent fruit quality... located in Fiddletown AVA. Entire parcel measures thirty one acres.
This property affords privacy, natural beauty, and an opportunity to engage in the wine and viticultural region of the Sierra Nevada Foothills. It is located just east of the historic, and very authentic, gold rush era town of Fiddletown; a must see when you come to tour this property. Other nearby historic towns are Plymouth, Amador City and Sutter Creek.
The vineyard contains Mourvedre (6 acres), Rousanne (3.5 acres) and Syrah (3.5 acres). The Mourvedre vineyard is mature and producing outstanding fruit. The Syrah and Rousanne blocks are newer but are productive.
The Mourvedre block is head-pruned and is one of the oldest head pruned Rhone Varietal vineyards in Amador County. The Rousanne and Syrah blocks are on a vertical trellis with bilateral cordons. Irrigation is via micro drip. The well is a very good producer and is located in the vineyard. The pump is housed in a redwood pump shed.
The home features a stone fireplace, gourmet kitchen, wood framed windows, and a naturally cooled underground wine cellar. The home is completely electric with all electric lines buried. There is an additional 700 sq. ft. of home space that is unfinished. Plans for the unfinished space are available from Seller.
The home is fronted by a natural lava rock wall and is very near a beautiful seasonal creek that typically runs through August. There is also a pond on the property that is fed be an artesian well.
The entire estate is situated in a very secluded valley off of Fiddletown road. The nearest market town of Plymouth is a 15 minute drive. The property is secluded and quiet. You won't see the nearest neighbor's house.
This is a very attractive estate for those looking for a respite from urban life. Beautiful wildlife, oaks, pines and seasonal stream make this property a prized location for those seeking solace, place of reflection, and having a close affinity for the land, soil, and wine growing. This is your dream vineyard property.
