About the Shannon Wine Family
The Shannon family is committed to preserving their land, not only for the great wine sites but also for the bears, elk, cougars, eagles and other creatures that call it home. Of their approximately 2,500 acres, only about 45% have been converted to vineyards. The balance of the land has been preserved for the wildlife that roams the property from the vast wilderness areas adjoining the ranches. The vineyards have been carefully planned, leaving corridors open to migrating animals, protecting sensitive nesting areas, and will be 100% certified organic this year.
The Shannon Family of Wines portfolio includes 13 Rams, Buck Shack, Clay Shannon, Giannecchini, High Valley, Mother Vine, Ovis, Shannon Ridge, Steele Wines and Urgency.
