Location from Sonoma County Winegrowers. Note: The Historical Vineyard Society also lists a Collins Vineyard, but it is in Napa.
Planted in 1934, the Collins Vineyard lies on the south side of Limerick Lane, formerly part of Limerick Lane Cellars. Our nine acre parcel yields 20-25 tons of fruit, and since 2012, the grapes have gone to Biale and the Artezin program at Hess. Sustainable practices, no round-up.
