Vineyard Block Names

Did you know that most of our Pinot Noir Vineyard Blocks are named after what used to be there, before the grapevines?

Blackberry Block (our newest block, named in 2008 by a Cellar Club member)
Big Tree Block
Concert Block (remember the great concerts back in the '90s? These vines are planted in the former parking area)
Goosepen Block
Old Vineyard Block (it's now replanted and named the New Old Vineyard)
Orchard Block
Peach Tree Block
Walnut Block

The only block that doesn't fit is our Watershed Block Pinot Noir - the Watershed is still there!

Other blocks in our estate vineyard:

Blue Bird Block Pinot Gris
Cattail Block Pinot Gris
Fir Island Block Pinot Gris
Betty Block Müller-Thurgau
Red House Riesling
