Alluvial Farm & VineyardS

Our farm sits on the West Edge of the Great Plains, rooted near the banks of the Poudre River—whose headwaters flow from the remnants of ancient volcanoes. And when glaciers began carving, the Poudre River flowed carrying rich sediment through valleys, canyons, and on into the plains. From mountain cirques to the terroir of our vineyard, we harvest each cluster of grapes with a spirit of gratitude. Gratitude for glaciers and rivers. For soil and roots. For time. For friends and family. For translucent fruit.

Certified Biodynamic FARMING

At Alluvial Farms & Vineyards, biodynamic farming is our elevated approach to organic agriculture—one that prioritizes diversity, resilience, and exceptional soil health. In our vineyards, we integrate sheep and pigs to naturally build soil and strengthen vines from the ground up. We further support the land through the use of compost and compost teas, applied in rhythm with lunar cycles to enhance the vineyard’s microbiome and overall vitality. This holistic practice allows us to protect and promote the alluvial soils that define our site and our wines—because at Alluvial Farms & Vineyards, from great soil comes great wine.

COLD HARDY GRAPES

We only work with cold hardy grapes grown on our farm or selectively gathered from the Western Slopes of the Rockies—a place also enriched by alluvial sediments.

What drives us?

The ambition to capture the full essense of cold hardy grapes through rhythmic and natural vintning. Snowmelt in spring fills the river. Summer storms bring rain. In autumn, everything glows. Through it all, sheep, kunekune pigs, and chickens roam our vineyard at well-timed intervals. After harvest, we allow whole cluster spontaneous fermentation to do its work with zero manipulations, sulfites, or filtering. From soil to vine—and barrel to bottle—nothing unnatural hinders the depth of what a palate can taste from alluvial-grown, cold hardy grapes.
