Amador County Shenandoah Valley
WINE COUNTRY PROPERTY FOR SALE
Better than gold...
invest in agricultural
land with water!
Why Amador County?
Unique growing conditions
- We are generally above the fog and below the
snow. Gently rolling foothills and unique Shenandoah and
Sierra sandy loam soils are granitic-based and slightly
acidic. A delta breeze during the day pushes warm air from
the valley into the foothills. At night, a cooler breeze
from the snow covered western slopes of the Sierra Nevada
moves
the
warm air back to the valley.
Fruit Quality -
Head-pruned vines are hand crafted and sustainably farmed in
the traditional dry land manner. The fruit has superb
flavors. We just won a double gold with our zinfandel wine
in the San Francisco Chronicle competition.
Amador County Vintners Association
- The association markets our wines nationwide. Last data -
2008 - had over 100,000 visitors to tasting rooms in the
Amador County wine country. There are over 40 winery
members.
Land Values - Shenandoah
Valley vineyard land has escaped the current down turn in
prices. Recent land sales support more than our asking
prices.
World-Class Wines -
Zinfandel - Amador County has 4.9% of the Zinfandel grapes
planted in the state and won 26% of the awards for wine
produced during the award season 08-09.
Custom Farming/or seller lease back available.
