About Balleto Vineyards
100% Estate Grown and Estate bottled, Balletto grows grapes where they are meant to thrive. They are farmers and they farm hard. There are no shortcuts and the wine shows it.
Balletto Vineyards started back in 1977 as a vegetable farm. After numerous challenges over the years the Balletto family took a chance on grape growing. Nearly 60 years later, Balletto Vineyards is one of the finest Vineyards in Russian River Valley.
