Client Comments
"I have had the good fortune to work with Merlot
from Tzabaco Rancho for more than a dozen years. This site in the
heart of Dry Creek Valley is well suited to growing top quality
Merlot. Both Brian and Janice Schmidt are committed to growing high
quality grapes and understand the concept of being not merely 'growers'
but 'winegrower'. They have worked hard to stay abreast of new vineyard
practices and implement them to continually improve the grapes they
grow. I used their Merlot fruit in the Lambert Bridge Merlot blend-our
flagship varietal-and also in our Crane Creek Cuvee-our prestige
meritage blend."

"I have made excellent wine using Tzabaco Rancho
grapes for 15 years.My job and product has been greatly enhanced
by the hands on approach to grape growing with state of the art
technology that Brian and Janice practice in there vineyards. This
is a fifth generation family from the Dry Creek Appellation of Sonoma
County made up of real people. That is to say they have a conscience
and they care about the wines (grapes) they grow so that the wineries
they sell their grapes to can produce excellent wines. My success
as a winemaker depends on the quality of the grapes I ferment. Tzabaco
Rancho grapes are paramount to Burnett Ridge Winery."
