The Historic Bickford Ranch 50.95 Acre property in Napa County, offering Howell Mountain Vineyard Potential. This hillside property combines wide-open meadows, forested areas as well as potential for views for an estate homesite. A year-round stream plus multiple springs, including two springs that have been developed for domestic use. Once a historic apple orchard and vineyard, grapes were contracted with Charles Krug. Vineyards are no longer present. However, Slope analysis shows 36.92 Acres are below 30% slope for potential vineyard development. A portion of the property's elevation does meet the requirement for Howell Mountain AVA. Analysis of soils are very suitable to grapes, including red Bordeaux varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon. The uninhabitable structure has water, electrical and septic system in place can be used as a starting point for development of your own vineyard estate.
