Our Wines
Our wines are produced entirely from grapes that are grown in the Buoy and Rivers Bend Vineyards, directly across the road from the winery. Larry walks the vineyards at least twice every day, year round – Aurora sees to that! As harvest approaches, he is continually sampling the grapes to ensure that we pick at optimal flavors and from locations that showcase the individual grape variety for that year. Grapes are all picked by hand and delivered to the winery by forklift the same day, usually as they are harvested.
Sleeping Dog Wines are produced in limited quantities (currently ~ 500 to 600 cases total production per year) so that we can maintain a close personal involvement with all aspects of production. The entire process, from grape selection to sales, is overseen personally by Larry, Joyce and Aurora, and is only possible due to the support of our friends and customers.
SHIPPING POLICIES: Shipping laws vary depending on location. Because the cost and compliance requirements vary for each state, we can not afford the luxury of licenses to ship our wines to all locations. We currently are licensed to ship wine to WASHINGTON, CALIFORNIA, COLORADO, MINNESOTA, and OREGON. If you don’t see your state listed, please contact us and we can explore the option of shipping to your state. It is a felony to ship to some states, so please do not place an online order without contacting us first if you do not reside in one of the listed states. Contact us directly and we will do our best to get your wine to you safely and affordably.
