Wine Glass Ranch

Wine Glass Ranch, Dorper sheep, Beckwourth, CA, in Sierra County and the Sierra Valley near Reno. It has been raising Dorper sheep for several years, participates in regional breeding associations, and practices routine health screenings to ensure flock well-being. Its sheep graze on open pasture with rotational grazing, and each lamb receives early socialization and shelter in climate-controlled barns.

It sources bloodlines selected for durability and mothering ability, drawing praise from local farmers for lamb vigor and adaptability. The operation began as a family endeavor focused on building resilient flocks suited to high-altitude grazing. The ranch sits at over 5,000 feet, offering crisp mountain air and robust forage for healthy development. Many of its lambs find homes with smallholders and homesteaders who value steady growth and gentle dispositions. Each animal receives hoof trimming, parasite control, and individualized diet as part of regular husbandry.
