The Fox Den Vineyard is named for the family of foxes who resided on the property when the Smith family settled on the 14 acres on the western edge of the Russian River Valley in 1972. When the Smiths arrived, a family of foxes occupied the original barn on the property. The Smith family allowed the foxes to stay while they built their own home, and to this day the foxes remain, bringing their young out from the old barn every spring to play and explore the renowned Pinot Noir vineyard.

Three generations of the Smith family now participate in the care and management of the vineyard, producing exceptional Pinot Noir and continuing to be stewards of their sacred land. We are honored to partner with the Smith family to bring a luscious, complex, and robust Pinot Noir to your glass.
