The Vineyard
Sutton County
Dedicated grape-growers Erika and Cam Campbell farm their 17 acres of vines in the low desert just outside the city of Sonora. These pioneers of growing grapes in this area have consistently provided quality Syrah and Tempranillo from High Cross Vineayrd, and the cool nights, combined with hot days and little rainfall, give these grapes their own taste of Texan terroir.
