Leeds has a unique combination of characteristics in its weather, elevation, latitude, and soil that makes its location ideal to produce excellent wine. The Vine Vine Yard produces 15 wines, from 10 varietals, plus blends. The wines range from soft white wines to bold full-bodied reds, the common denominator of ALL wines are the smoothness & balance between great tannins, fruit and acidity.

The origins of the grapes are France (5); Spain (4) Croatia (1). The best way to learn about The Vine Yard is to schedule a wine tasting, which will be served with tapas at the winery.

I learned about wine guided by my father, who would pour a dash of red wine into the lime aid we used to drink and told me “Learn to recognize the flavor of tannins.” He showed me the cultural side of not only drinking wine, but my own background from my Spanish grandfather. I started reading about vineyards, and winemaking. From there, 2 projects to buy wine land in both California and Washington state, failed because of my own lack of faith. (In both instances, the land purchases had been successful), only to back out of them on my account. WORST financial decisions I have made.

Fast forward to 2006 I acquired some land in Leeds, UT in pursuit of a commercial venture. The real estate crash of 2008-09, (and several obtuse neighbors), for which it took me 3 years to get the construction permits. So, I decided NOT to pursue the commercial venture. Yet, I kept the land. In 2011 after attending some courses in Ensenada, Mexico on practical winemaking, I decided to go ahead and do the craziest project ever. I decided to plant a vineyard… over 5 different years…. First time I made wine in 2012 resulted in the most fabulous Zinfandel. I kept making wine with ever improved results…. The Vine Yard, LLC is the end result of these efforts. Most rewarding experience I’ve had. Today, the wines produced in Leeds, Utah, are indeed world class.
