Discover a secret hidden in the hills above Alexander Valley and unlock the key to becoming immersed in a tranquil wine country lifestyle.  Take a moment to escape the hectic life that exists beyond these hills and form an everlasting connection to the land as the steward of this tremendous estate.

This incredible property embodies an unparalleled Vintner experience in a pristine, 200 +/- acre setting overlooking the world renowned Alexander Valley . Olive groves grace the primary slope as you make your way up the hillside to see the strikingly beautiful residence overlooking the expansive view of the valley below. To the northeast, the exquisite 26 +/- acres of terraced vineyards that form an amphitheater carved into the mountains provide yet another luxurious view. A shimmering pond invites you to drop a fishing line in the water or just enjoy the reflections of the surrounding hillside vineyard.  Complemented by extensive culinary gardens and fruit orchards this is all woven together to create an idyllic life in harmony with nature.

The fruit from the dynamic estate vineyard has been used to create the highly acclaimed wines for Skipstone. With the unique shape of the vineyard and incredible array of soils and exposures, the vineyard provides the foundation in which to grow exceptional fruit. Years of careful stewardship of the vineyard and the surrounding property has earned the CCOF designation for Organic farming.  Characterized by the ‘sweet tannins’, the wine made from the Cabernet Sauvignon grown at the estate has been compared to some of the best wines Napa Valley has to offer. The resulting accolades from wine critics and customers alike have vaulted this wine to star status.

"... polished and silky is the dense purple-colored 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Oliver's Blend. Composed of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Cabernet Franc, it exhibits an attractive chocolaty, herbal, espresso roast, and black currant-scented nose, medium to full body, an endearing texture, and a heady finish."  Robert Park, Jr. The Wine Advocate - 92 points

The main residence, clad in circa 200 year old Pennsylvania barn wood, embodies a chic rustic style that invites instant relaxation and escape. As you enter the home, you are struck by the space and openness of the design and glorious views from every area of the house.  Despite its generous 8,200 +/- square foot size, the warmth of the materials and authenticity of the architecture create a welcoming environment.  Sky high ceilings lay the framework for the living room, and open portals to the conservatory and the dining room provide a natural flow from room to room making the entertaining areas warm and inviting.  Finished in 1994, this 6 bedroom home’s casual aesthetic incorporates reclaimed Chestnut flooring, soaring old-world fireplaces and hand-hewn oak beams that form the dramatic architecture. 

The showcase Chef’s kitchen and large center island provide an ideal stage for culinary creations and casual entertaining.  The kitchen is complemented by a circular dining area for less formal occasions.  Just off the kitchen, a spacious dining room with fireplace is open to multiple configurations for your special events and holiday celebrations.

Adjacent to the kitchen bar, a comfortable family room provides a more intimate space to unwind after a busy day and is adjacent to three bedrooms, two of which are en-suite. The artisan spiral staircase leads to two additional guest suites and yet another spacious living area with a warm fireplace and bar overlooking the formal living room downstairs.

The master suite wing features a fireplace, two dressing rooms, large master bathroom, formal office or sitting room and a private patio overlooking the stunning Alexander Valley .

Multiple patios and sitting areas surrounding rolling lawns and majestic oaks provide the perfect setting for soaking in the breathtaking views.  Tucked away in the vineyards shaded by large oaks, a lovely picnic area invites you to enjoy the wines or just take in the picturesque vistas.  If you are lucky you might see an eagle riding the thermals high above.

The lovely grounds include a rose cutting garden, extensive plantings and 1.5 +/- acres of organic culinary gardens and orchards. The produce from this garden is donated to the Ceres Community Project. A substantial greenhouse and chicken coup are nestled in the gardens and add to the charm of this sustainable property.  For hikers there are forested hills or gentle walks through the vineyard and olive grove.  The 7-stall barn and riding arena perched on the ridge overlooking the valley welcomes horse enthusiasts.

The residential compound includes a four car garage, swimming pool, pool house, and office.  The office overlooks the vineyards and can easily be converted to a guest cottage or caretaker’s home.

Embraced by the nature of the Alexander Valley , within minutes of the charming town of Healdsburg, this unique estate is a dazzling archetype of what typifies life in Northern California ’s wine Country. As the day winds to an end, the sun sets, and the moon gently graces the evening sky, you can find yourself sharing the bounties of the land with a glass of wine, enjoying an environment of unparalleled beauty and contentment.
