OAK KNOLL FARMING

Grounded in Vineyard Expertise

We’re long-time farmers and land-owners who understand vineyards from the ground up. We combine our hands-on experience with the best of today’s viticulture practices.

At Oak Knoll Farming, we treat every vineyard like it’s our own—focusing on creating long term value, achieving vine balance, conducting safe operations, and applying the cost consciousness necessary to help our growers succeed.

Our approach blends intuition with innovation, so our clients get consistent, high-quality results and a partnership built on honesty, communication, and real care for the land.
