Celebrating 50 Years at Lytton Springs

Paul Draper first saw the vineyard in 1972 and, based on its age (then already 80 years old), purchased grapes and produced Ridge’s first Lytton Springs bottling that year. In 1991, on the 20th anniversary of our first vintage, Ridge Vineyards purchased the Lytton Springs winery and the old vines surrounding it, making it a true estate vineyard. It was clear from the consistency of character and quality that this was one of those sites where soil, climate, and varietal were perfectly matched. Now, 50 years later, we are proud to be celebrating the golden anniversary of this time-honored site.
