Most visitors to Adelaida Cellars hear of our HMR Estate and Viking Estate vineyards, but few know of our future gems! Our longterm vineyard plans here at Adelaida entail planting 7 to 10 acres per year over the next several years. Not only does this strategy facilitate new estate varietals, but it also allows us to replace any existing vines that are no longer productive.Adelaida wines currently originate in two principal estate vineyards, the HMR Estate Vineyard and the Viking Estate Vineyard. Planted in 1964, HMR Estate Vineyard boasts the oldest Pinot Noir vines on the South Central coast. Its mountaintops lie fully exposed to the raw elements at 1,700 feet elevation. There is also a small amount of Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon planted on the HMR Vineyard. Our Viking Estate Vineyard was planted by the Van Steenwyk family 1992. Considerably warmer than HMR, Viking is flanked by two adjoining ridges that shelter its 1,700-foot elevations. Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and a small amount of Cabernet Franc can be found on the Viking Vineyard.
