History of the Mendocino County Wine Industry

Written by Benjamin Bicais


Continued from page 1

Prohibition was almost a death sentence forrepparttar region's wine industry. With a few isolated exceptions, almost all was lost. A few Zinfandel vineyards inrepparttar 133987 Mendocino Ridge survived and are thankfully still alive today. However, all ofrepparttar 133988 wineries were closed during Prohibition.

The Parducci Family is credited as beingrepparttar 133989 stewards ofrepparttar 133990 wine industry duringrepparttar 133991 ensuing difficult years. Inrepparttar 133992 1960s they owned and operatedrepparttar 133993 only winery inrepparttar 133994 county. It is located nearrepparttar 133995 Redwood Valley.

The Renaissance

The industry began to come alive withrepparttar 133996 rest ofrepparttar 133997 California wine industry duringrepparttar 133998 1960s and 1970s. In 1968,repparttar 133999 Fetzer family established a winery nearrepparttar 134000 McDowell Valley. Finallyrepparttar 134001 Parducci Family had some company. Substantial investment went into planting vineyards, but not much wine was actually produced in Mendocino. Most ofrepparttar 134002 region's grapes were sold to non-resident wineries and used in faceless blends.

Thankfully, this has changed. There are currently many high-quality wineries inrepparttar 134003 county. In recent years,repparttar 134004 region has gained a reputation for producing many varietals exceptionally well. The practice of shipping grapes to other regions for production lessened asrepparttar 134005 large AVA's renown increased. It currently contains over 15,000 acres of planted vineyards.
