Partner with Valley Farm Management
While we don’t make or sell wine commercially today, for 30 years Smith Family Wines produced award-winning SLH wines. This means, from viticulture to three-tiered distribution, soil to software, planting to bottling, we know every aspect of the winery business. Every winery’s goals are different, so we create and implement a unique vineyard management plan for you. Our goal is a long-term partnership built on collaboration and trust. We succeed when you do.
Expertise
Benefit from our experienced, full-service vineyard management team. For nearly five decades our talented growers, harvesters, enologists and viticulturists have perfected the winegrape growing and winemaking process from root to bottle. We’ll help you produce better wine—and profits.
Quality
When it comes to winegrapes, “good enough” doesn’t even come close. Our focus is long-term, mutually beneficial relationships. That requires impeccable quality over time, which is why we treat your grapes, your land, and your goals as if they were our own.
Sustainability
To us, sustainability means investing in the resources that make it possible to reliably and efficiently grow the best grapes in the world—over the long term. We take care of people, vines and land by focusing on their health.
