Did you know?

• Colorado ranks 19^th in the country for wine production
• Colorado’s vineyards are among the highest in the world, ranging from 4,000 to over 7,000 feet above sea level. This high elevation provides intense sunlight and cool nights, which help grapes develop rich flavors while maintaining acidity.
• The state’s unique terroir—a mix of volcanic soils, high-altitude sun, and dramatic temperature swings—gives Colorado wines distinct structure and minerality.
• Despite its size, Colorado produces over 100 different grape varietals, including Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Riesling, Merlot, and lesser-known hybrids like Chambourcin and Traminette.
