Immersive Sound Experience & Small Bites

admin — Tue, 15 Mar 2022 00:05:49 +0000

Explore the sights and sounds of our property through this 90-minute private tasting experience at Bell Mountain Ranch. Guests will be self-guided through an audio experience developed by local sound artist, Hugh Livingston. Following the walking tour, our wine educator will guide the guests through a flight of five current release and member-exclusive wines thoughtfully paired with a seasonal, local cheese plate.

Bell Mountain is the heart of everything we do at Medlock Ames. In the spirit of preservation and sustainability, we leave the majority of our 338 acres in their natural state. The working estate includes 50 acres of vineyards, 650 olive trees, an orchard, and a market garden for seasonal vegetables and flowers, along with our state-of-the-art winery and barrel cellar.

Experience Highlights

Wander through the vineyards

Explore

Enjoy the sights and sounds of our vineyards, garden, and winery in Alexander Valley. Gaze at the ponds and oak trees draped with Spanish moss while sipping wine from our estate vineyards. Wildlife is abundant with dozens of bird species and butterflies floating around the property.

Insider Tip: Depending on the time of year, you may be lucky to see the grape harvest in action!

Self-Guided Audio Tour

Learn

Follow a map around Bell Mountain Ranch while co-founder, Ames Morison, chats to you about regenerative farming and our fight against climate change. Our winemaker, Abby Watt, will explain why Cabernet grows best at our Ranch and other members of Medlock Ames will educate you on our sustainable practices in this pre-recorded audio series.

Insider Tip: The walk usually takes between 30-60 min. Please dress comfortably with appropriate footwear!

Organically-farmed wines

Taste

After your stroll, enjoy six current releases and member-exclusive wines with one of our wine educators. Thoughtfully paired with a seasonal, local cheese plate alongside market items from our organic gardens. Most of our wines are crafted in small batches due to the limited number of planted vines on the property.

Insider Tip: At the ranch, you will try some of our lowest production, member-allocated wines.

At a Glance

Available daily at 11:00 am and 2:00 pm

1-12 Guests can attend. Guests must be over 21.

This experience will be hosted at Bell Mountain Ranch at 13414 Chalk Hill Rd. Healdsburg, CA 95448 (Please note: we have two locations, so be sure that you've identified the correct address before the time of your visit.)

Duration: Plan for at least 90 min

This tasting experience will include a tour of our vineyard property and winery production space so please plan to wear comfortable shoes. You may also want to bring a jacket as the weather in wine country can be a bit crisp from time to time.

Experience takes place outdoors and is weather permitting. Tastings will be conducted inside or outside depending on rain or shine.

Our take

Sustainability is the heart of what we do. Along with farming organic vineyards we harvest olive oil, operate seven solar arrays, and employ a full-time vineyard team.

Ames is transitioning the property to follow regenerative farming practices. He studied organic farming and ecological health in the peace corps of Guatemala.

Tips

A destination for Cabernet lovers. Alexander Valley is home to beautiful, rich, and complex soils along with warm afternoons which are ideal conditions for this grape variety.

Visit the 100-year-old Historic Healdsburg Tasting Room, only about 20 minutes from the Ranch. Once a country store turned gas station, turned biker bar. We renovated the building in 2006.

Make sure to try the organic estate Olive Oil and Blackberry Grape Jelly.

Your Host:
Medlock Ames Winery

Since the 1990’s we have been pioneers in the area by farming organically with no artificial chemicals, fertilizers or pesticides used to grow our wines. Instead, we promote healthy, living soil that nurtures, feeds and protects our vines and embrace age-old, low impact farming methods, like crop diversity, allowing the vineyard to shine through in the fruit.

Courtyard Wine Tasting & Ranch Picnic

admin — Tue, 02 Mar 2021 18:08:09 +0000

Start your unique Napa Valley experience with a generous splash of wine, upon being greeted by a member of our friendly and knowledgeable staff. You will be escorted to the courtyard of the barn for your tasting of five wines from our portfolio of highly rated, limited-production, estate-grown wines.

Following your tasting, your host will take you on a tour of the ranch property. Check out the winery production facility and crush pad. Stroll around the paddocks and meet the horses, from the herd of mini ponies to our regal resident Friesian, Magie Noir. Then return to the courtyard for your picnic lunch, which has been artfully curated by Sam’s General Store in Calistoga. Pick your favorite wine from the tasting flight and enjoy a glass with your lunch.
