Like most in the region, Ray is planting grapes that grow well in Burgundy, France, where the climate and elevation are nearly identical, he says. Typical grapes grown in the region include merlot, cabernet franc, cabernet sauvignon, sangiovese, chardonnay, Riesling, viognier, sauvignon blanc and petit verdo. Ray has even chosen to age his wines in French oak barrels.
