WINEMAKING

A SHEPHERD'S WORK

TRUST IN THE RAW MATERIAL & GET OUT OF THE WAY

We have always believed this. If the fruit is well-grown and comes from a compelling site, there is no way to improve upon it. Our job is simply to usher it through the process of fermentation and into bottle with as little intervention as possible. This has been our approach since Day 1 despite the real incentives to conform to a more commercial style.

INVEST IN HOLISTIC VITICULTURE
ACTIVELY ENGAGE WITH THE VINEYARD
PICK ON THE EARLIER SIDE OF RIPENESS
HARVEST FRUIT BY HAND
USE REFRIGERATED TRANSPORT TO WINERY
