Tobias Glen

Tobias Glen Vineyard

The Tobias Glen Vineyard is a 19-acre estate located in one of the most cherished cool-climate micro-regions of the Russian River Valley AVA in Sonoma County, California. It was saved from being demolished and turned into a housing development when California Wineries & Vineyards (CWV), the parent company of Tobias Glen Vineyard, acquired it in 2015.

Our vineyard farming is conducted by Art Robledo, Jr., and his well-respected family, who have been tending Tobias Glen for more than a decade. Art believes it is important to be a good steward of the land by practicing environmentally friendly techniques and to treat each vine individually. Four acres are farmed, and the rest remains a conservation forest. The vineyard is certified sustainable.

A native of Burgundy, winemaker Stéphane Vivier applies his old-world sensibilities at several Napa, Sonoma, Russian River Valley, and Mendocino wineries. To Stéphane, the best winemaker is one who largely keeps his hands to himself, allowing nature to do what it does best.

Through minimal intervention and practicing integrated pest management, the wines are allowed to naturally and honestly express the character of the vineyard site. The estate-grown fruit produces limited-production Pinot Noir and Rosé. Chardonnay fruit is sourced from Hyde Vineyard in Napa Valley.

Grapes are always hand-harvested at night with minimal handling and intervention. Aging takes place in French oak, sourced from a sustainably managed forest in France’s Loire region. Bee colonies on the estate pollinate cover crops, which regulate the soil’s health and water retention, eliminating the need for chemicals, while regulating vine growth.
