Checkerboard Vineyards

About

This 300-acre Diamond Mountain property spans from valley floor to 2000-foot elevations, with just 14 carefully planted acres producing Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Franc, and various reds under new winemaking leadership as of 2025. Small lot fermentations and meticulous grape selection go into their proprietary blends like "Impetuous," which delivers ripe fruit and silky tannins.
