The Square Peg tasting room is located on our Estate Vineyard, just outside the picturesque town of Occidental. Our tasting room offers stunning views, warm hospitality and award winning wines. All Tastings and Tours are private. Additionally, the tasting room houses a Fine Art and Sculpture gallery featuring work by Artist in Residence Alanna Roth.
Our Estate Vineyard is located in one of the finest sections of the Russian River Valley and is also co-located in 2 additional AVA's: Green Valley of Russian River Valley and Sonoma Coast. Dry farming sets us apart from our neighbors; the only water our vines receive is the rainwater that percolates into and is stored by the soil.

The Vineyard
Report
Our Square Peg Estate Vineyard is located in one of the finest sections of the Russian River Valley, and is also co-located in 2 additional AVA's: Green Valley of Russian River Valley and Sonoma Coast. Situated on a ridge at an elevation of approximately 800 feet, the Estate receives ample sunshine throughout the day, and our proximity to the coast allows for cool, foggy evenings.
Dry Farming
Report
Dry farming sets us apart from our neighbors; the only water our vines receive is the rainwater that percolates into and is stored by the soil. We firmly believe that dry farming produces grapes (and ultimately wine) with better balance and more concentrated, unique flavors.
Soil composition plays a large part in the practice of dry farming, and the abundance of Gold Ridge soil at the Estate ensures the vines stay healthy and productive without the need for irrigation.Gold Ridge soil contains a top layer of sandy loam, which provides excellent drainage for rainfall. Beneath this lies a layer of mineral rich clay, which serves to retain moisture during the summer months, as well as provide nutrients for the vines.
