In the late 1960s and early 1970s, a few visionaries began restoring the old vineyards and winery buildings. Montelle’s success in crafting exceptional wines is attributed to its unique vineyards. The Augusta area was designated as the first viticultural area in the United States due to its distinctive soils, microclimates, and history.
