At Quivira, our commitment to a wine's balance and its reflection of terroir is what drives all our efforts. We invite you to learn how this philosophy is reflected throughout Quivira by exploring our wines, our 100% CCOF-certified organic estate vineyards, and our ever-changing seasonal garden. Come experience the relaxing vibe in our Dry Creek Valley setting, ten minutes from downtown Healdsburg. The link between how we farm and our wines is a key component in our overall winemaking philosophy.

Our philosophy on winemaking reflects the seamless vision between winemaker Hugh Chappelle and viticulturalist Ned Horton; a vision that begins with precision growing practices engaging the vineyard, block by block, and is reinforced by a winemaking philosophy showcased by a light touch that expresses balance and terroir.
