Wines from a Desert Oasis

Welcome to your Home Away From Home

Growing our own grapes since 1991 at the Sutcliffe estate located in the historic South West Colorado in McElmo Canyon. Throughout the years we have garnered a loyal following for our exceptional wines and the ecstatic experience you cannot replicate anywhere else.

Romantically trapped in our isolation and eccentricity, and driven by an insatiable desire to produce better wines. We stubbornly battle on. 

Here at the vineyard we express this attitude, as well as offering brilliant wines and good humor.  

Crafting Wines In The True American West Since 1991

We produce quite a wide range of wines, some of the more celebrated are Cabernet Franc, Viognier, Chardonnay, and the complex red blends which we award unpronounceable Welsh names, like Trawsfynydd and Hafoty Fawr.

Additionally, explore our Wine Society membership, where you can join the Sutcliffe family at one of three levels: Amusing, Charming, and Adorable, rather than bronze, silver, and gold. Lots of benefits, complimentary tastings, solid discounts, and access to our fun, exclusive events.
