Solar Ash Origins

The Terroir Story

Knights Valley, nestled between the Mayacamas mountains and Mount St. Helena, is a hidden gem shaped by ancient volcanic activity and cooled by coastal breeze.

It's history traces back to 19th century European settlers who recognized the valley's potential for viticulture amidst its mineral rich soils and dramatic topography.

Today, the secluded AVA remains one of Sonoma County's most distinctive terroirs, producing wines of depth, structure, and unmistakable sense of place.
