3340 Lichau Rd - Gapstone Vineyard 29.89 Acres of Agricultural Land Offered at $3,500,000 in Penngrove, CA 94951

Ideal for winemakers or investors, Gapstone is an ultra-premium Sonoma County vineyard developed in 2017 with the guidance of one of California's most esteemed award-winning viticultural authorities, Garrett Buckland of Premier Viticulture. Located on the Northeastern slopes of the Petaluma Gap appellation, its terroir and character are defined by well-drained, uniquely silty gravel with a climate characterized by cool ocean breezes and coastal fog.
This vineyard is planted to 24 +/- net vine acres, featuring six clones of Pinot Noir: Calera, Mt. Eden, Swan, 115, Pommard, and Mariahfeld. There are two heritage clones of Chardonnay, Wente and Calera. The balance is planted to cool-climate whites, a rare Italian clone of Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, and Semillon.
With legendary neighbors such as Gap's Crown and Sangiacomo's Roberts Road Vineyard, and virtually unlimited water from a prolific well, this vineyard produces critically acclaimed high-end wines with the selection of the finest clones, optimal vine density, thoughtfully oriented rows, and a carefully engineered infrastructure. In the past, fruit from this vineyard has been sold to premium wineries, including Flowers and Far Niente. The current owner is willing to extend a contract to purchase grapes from the buyer.
