ONE FINE WINE

WILDLIFE.
Due to the nature of the business, the Lost Maples Winery is a high-fenced deer proof establishment within the boundaries of the vineyard and venue. The area along the Sabinal River allows wildlife to roam freely including Axis and Whitetail deer, Hog, Turkey, Dove, Quail, other Woodland and Songbirds. Waterfowl.
VEGETATION.
Lively towering Pecans. Huge shady Oaks. Color changing Sycamore. A variety of aquatic plants along the river region. Black Spanish Lenoir Grape variety. Maple Trees.
SOILS.
It takes good soil to grow good grapes!
The property to its entirety is comprised of two types of underlayment. First, a crumbly mix of Krum silty clay offers a great platform for grape growing and second, Orif-Boerne association, which basically means the area along the river frontage is more stony and within an area that is wet, like along the river. Great for woodlands and wildlife and recreation.
POWER.
Power is on the property and available to all improvements.
