Estate Vineyard Acreage
Mark Skenfield, partner of Newsome-Harlow (Harlow is his grandmother’s maiden name), grew up in Murphys and began his own vineyard development and management company in 1995. He is responsible for farming over 40 acres in 22 separate vineyards in Calaveras County. Our wines are made mostly from fruit farmed by Mark, all locally grown. Our Big John Zinfandel is considered some of the best Zin in the area.
