Hartford Vineyard
Don Hartford tends this 90-year old vineyard located on approximately seven acres along
Wood Road in the Russian River appellation of Sonoma County. The vineyard is head-pruned and
produces low annual yields of roughly 1.5 tons an acre (Some vines producing only several clusters
of intensely flavored grapes a year). The signature of this unique terroir is an intense sweet
blackberry aroma and a supple texture.
Wood Road has well-draining, low fertility, sandy loam soils about two to three feet in depth over
deeper layers of compacted sandy loam of about four to six inches. Because the Italian immigrants
who planted the Wood Road Vineyard in the early 1900s wanted to ensure long vine life and
moisture for their dry-farmed vines, they placed a blasting cap where each vine was to be planted
and blasted through the compacted layer. Today we continue to enjoy the fruits of their ingenuity
and celebrate the legacy of 'dynamite' Zinfandels.
