The Vineyard
Texas High Plains AVA
Alta Loma Vineyard
Alta Loma Vineyard is a spectacular growing site in the Texas High Plains, owned and farmed by the Burran and Floyd families. Established in 2016 with fewer than 10 acres of Syrah and Sangiovese, they have since planted two more varieties that have proven sustainable in the region. Their sandy loam soil is well-drained and suited to the varieties they've selected.
