Winemaking

Winemaking

Our goal is to make approachable and satisfying wines that capture the flavor of high quality fruit.  It all starts with fantastic flavor in wine grapes and fruit. Our own vineyard practices and the relationships with our growers play a critical role in our efforts to make great wine.

We believe that winemaking is a fundamentally simple and natural process.  Winemaking is about capturing flavors. The best way to do that is to make wine in the gentlest way possible.

Over  the years, as winemaking technology has evolved to be gentler on wine, we have invested millions of dollars in equipment that helps us get the most flavor out of the very best fruit.  We are proud to have the most modernly equipped winery in the eastern United States.
