When you smell a wine, you should to be transported to its origins and see the landscape. It should relate to good memories, and provide a strong feeling of identity. This is why we try to listen, be soft and transparent in our winemaking.\r\nOur choices in the cellar guard the purity of our vineyards.\u00a0 Simply put, we make wine in the traditional, handcrafted manner.\u00a0 We harvest by hand.\u00a0 We sort by hand.\u00a0 We load the grapes into the press by hand.\u00a0 We shovel the vats out by hand. We employ spontaneous fermentation and ferment in very tiny lots, so that we truly understand the expression of the vineyard each year. We use very low levels of sulphur, ferment our Rieslings bone dry,\u00a0and do not fine or filter our red wines.\r\nOur indigenous yeast fermentations proceed very slowly. It is not in spring, but in the summer after the vintage that we are finally able to move toward bottling the wines. Once fermentations are complete, our team begins diligently tasting through our barrels and tanks, giving each a detailed rating and review, and writing personal tasting notes.\u00a0 When we talk about small batch and individualized fermentations, we really mean it \u2014 hundreds of separate, small French barriques from 16 different vineyards, each with its own story and personality. |
