After many years in the planning stages, construction of a new
processing facility has started at Halter Ranch. The new winery is almost complete. The entrance to the ranch, through the barnyard will be
connected to the vineyard and winery by a new bridge crossing Las
Tablas Creek. Architect, John Mitchell worked closely with the Halter Ranch winemaking team to design this state of the art facility.
Multi-level, the winery will utilize gravity flow in all aspects of
the winemaking process. A gravity flow winery allows the winemaker to
handle the fruit in the gentlest way possible, without pumping, from
the de-stemmer at the top level, into the tanks, and ultimately into
the barrel.
