When you visit Javelina Leap you will be greated by their HUGE Mastiff "Vineyard." He is their loyal vineyard watch dog, and loves when visitors come to visit! Be careful or you might get a nice slobery kiss!

 

The Page Springs Valley where Javelina Leap Vineyard & Winery is located was named for the Page family who farmed the area at the turn of the century and also for the abundance of artesian springs.   This booming mining town was once said to be the “badest” town in the west, complete with Victorian fashions from Paris to brothels and saloons.  To commemorate this special historic time Cynthia Snapp (also known as Mrs. Javelina Leap) designed the Javelina Leap tasting room after an old saloon with copper ceiling & oak bar.
