Vineyard
The J. Lohr Gesture Mourvèdre comes from plantings at our J. Lohr Stairway Vineyard, located in the Adelaida District of Paso Robles. Slopes can be as much as a 50% to 75% grade at this ranch. Hiking up the vine rows requires caution when traversing the steep, step-like chalk rocks. This part of Paso Robles is an ancient uplifted sea bed so fossilized that seashells are often found in the ground - even though the vineyard is perched at 1,500 foot average elevation. Weather at Stairway is ideal for growing red Rhône varieties. The farming plan for Mourvèdre brings the crop to just one cluster per shoot prior to veraison in order to intensify flavor.
