Established by the father-son duo Jack Florence Sr. and Jr., Florence Vineyard is a prestigious source for Zinfandel and Petite Sirah located in the Dry Creek Valley and Rockpile regions. The vineyard is famous for its high-elevation plantings in rocky, red soil, featuring the historic "St. Peter's Church" clone that produces exceptionally intense fruit. Jack Florence Sr. played a pivotal role in the official creation of the Rockpile AVA, a designation that celebrates the area's steep, fog-free hillsides and unique terroir. This distinctive environment ensures that the grapes harvested here provide a signature character and depth to some of the region's most renowned wines.
