The majority of our wines are hand-crafted by our winemakers, Peter Steinfeld, Alaina Waller and Tracey Thomsen. We very selectively source all of our grapes. We work with growers in California, Oregon and Washington State. We believe grapes should be sourced from vineyards that best express the unique flavors of the varietal. This means that we sometimes choose more than one vineyard to source the same varietal. Different microclimates provide different characteristics and that gives us the complexities we desire in the wine. The grapes for our red varietals (Barbera, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot, Nebbiolo, Sangiovese, Tannat, Tempranillo and Zinfandel) are orgasmically grown in the hot and dry Applegate and Columbia Valley regions of Oregon and Washington respectively. While our other varietals (Albariňo, Chardonnay, Muscat, Pinot Blanc/Gris/Noir and Riesling) benefit from the cool pacific marine layers of the Willamette and Illinois Valley’s to produce subtle and complex wines.
