Our Reputation

We are proud of our people, our equipment and our services, but we know that our best recommendations come straight from the mouths of our clients.

“The Francis Coppola Winery Estate Vineyard has been farmed by Redwood Empire Vineyard Management since 2006.  Since this time, we have been overwhelmed by the professionalism of the entire REVM staff and truly feel they are our winegrowing partner.  From ushering our vineyard into Sustainable Winegrowing Certified status to the Cabernet Sauvignon from the estate being a Francis Coppola Winery Reserve tier candidate, we have enjoyed the top notch wine industry and viticultural guidance both Kevin Barr and Tyler Klick have given us. The entire REVM staff is timely and takes our farming budget and need for economic feasibility seriously. REVM has improved the beauty of our vineyard, much to the enjoyment of our many visiting guests, who hail from all parts of the world.  It’s been a first class experience for us to work with REVM and we can’t express enough how critical they are to fulfilling the vision that Francis Ford Coppola has for our winery.”

“Silver Oak, Twomey Cellars and our affiliated companies have been working in various capacities with Redwood Empire Vineyard Management since 2000.  They have developed vineyards for us, farmed for us and sold us fruit from their contract ranches.  I have always found them highly professional, easy to work with and up to date on farming techniques and viticulture.  In our winemaking, we strive for excellence every day and every vintage, and I can say the same for REVM.”

Daniel Baron, Silver Oak & Twomey Cellars

 

“Kevin has been with us from day one.  His responsiveness and attention to detail have been critical to the development of our 70 acre vineyard and are mirrored in the professional support we get from his office staff. Kevin and everyone at REVM are a joy to work with.”

Judy Vadasz, Vadasz Family Vineyards

 

“When I need grapes pulled on a certain day. I know that without question REVM will come through.  They are one of the best equipped, most reliable and detail oriented vineyard management companies we have worked with.”

Mark Burningham, Benziger Family Winery

 

“Hiring REVM was the best decision I made after we bought our ranch and vineyard.  With nearly three years under our belt now, I’m convince that Tyler Klick may be the best viticultural farming manager in the Sonoma County. He is highly regarded by every winery we have spoken to.  And he seamlessly effected our transition to organic and played a central role in our other sustainability certification.  REVM’s work handling our wide range of road, creek and infrastructure improvements has been the center piece for the entire ranches restoration and development. We plan to be a customer of there for a long time.”

William Hinkle, Sei Querce Vineyards

 

“I have known and worked with Kevin for over 33 years and what I’ve come to learn is that no one approaches their business with more expertise, resources and commitment than REVM.  If you want it done right, done legally and done well, you call Kevin.”

Mel Sanchetti, Korbel Wine Cellars

 

“Redwood Empire has been our vineyard manager from the beginning. They are very progressive, keep abreast of the science of vineyard management, and are extremely diligent in their work.  We like the management team, the vineyard supervisors, and the workers. They are very responsive to issues, keep us well informed, and follow sustainable standards in all their work. REVM delivers very, very high value for their compensation. We wouldn’t want to do this without them.”
