El Gabilan is the original name of the old vineyard planted at the northwestern end of the Cienega Valley, now named Gimelli Vineyards, after the current owner. This vineyard was originally planted around 115 years ago in 1908, of which remain a 5 acre block of Cabernet Pfeffer and 7.5 acre block of Zinfandel. This is the same limestone laden, calcite country Cienega Valley as the neighboring Wirz Vineyard. Dry-farmed, organic bush vines that yield concentrated fruit from another era. This vineyard also boasts a very successful planting of more modern varieties that thrive in the limestone soil and ample sunshine.
