Our Story

Family Owned Vineyard Since 2004

Located 7 miles north of Fredericksburg, the Klenk Family Vineyard is nestled in the limestone hills of the Texas Hill Country.

The current vineyard is laid out over a southern facing hill with the grapes planted in a sandy loam that contains some clay. With significant variety in both soil depth and composition, we offer unique yet authentic Texas fruit.

About our Grapes

VINEYARD

 

The first vines were planted in 2004 with a slow but steady expansion over the following years. Sitting at 1800 feet on a south facing hill, the vineyard which is underlayed by limestone, has a significant variety in both soil composition and soil depth.

The limestone bed has proven key in natural soil moisture moderation. Although drip irrigation is available, it normally is only used during periods of very low rainfall.

The vineyard is single varietal, Sangiovese, with clones originating from both the  Montalcino and the Chianti Classico regions of Italy.
