Also, since there’s no wifi it’s best to plan app-based transportation such as Uber or Lyft ahead of time so you don’t get stranded!

Winemaking

Does your wine contain sulfites? Yes. While all wine naturally contains sulfites, we also add sulfur to our wines as an antimicrobial measure. That being said, our wines will get less than 100ppm (parts per million) of sulfur added by the time they’re bottled, compared to the average conventional wine receiving around 10 times that amount.

Do you use lab grown yeast for fermentation? No, our fermentations are done using ambient yeast that is present in our cellar. This can be stressful, as you’re maintaining the unpredictable variable of nature in the fermentations, but there is more of a liveliness and sense of terroir present in the wine with ambient yeast.
