Our Producers
We believe all great wine has two things in common - great vineyards, and a passionate vigneron. The producers we work with are farmers at heart, who tell delicious, metaphorical stories of place through skilled work in the vineyard, and knowledgeable winemaking. The producers we're most drawn to craft wines of transparency. That is, wines that reflect where the grapes were grown (terroir), and that taste like the grapes in the bottle (we call this typicity). We do not believe in being dogmatic, and won't write people off for having to irrigate in a difficult vintage or use a touch of sulfur. While we love the classics like Burgundy and Piedmont, we're also fascinated by the new and cutting edge. Some of our producers make powerful reds from warm climates; from others we get bright, zesty whites from seaside vineyards. While there's a framework we use when we’re thinking about wine quality, we believe both your table and cellar will be enriched with a diversity of styles, stories, and personalities. Delicious wines, made by real people, taking you on a journey from their vineyard to your glass.
