James Lester, our winemaker and co-owner, has been growing vines and making wine in Michigan for more than 30 years, and his winemaking philosophy hasn’t changed.
Our production is extremely small, less than 2,000 cases annually. The wine labels, modeled after the Arts and Crafts movement, communicate our philosophy. Both the vineyard and cellar work are done by hand with extreme care and attention to detail. We conscientiously farm our vineyards to produce low yields of intense concentration. Our vineyards are on the organic side of things, but non-certified (diverse ecosystem, no irrigation, no fertilization). Our wines are estate bottled with the labels applied by hand at the winery.
We’ve built a loyal following by focusing exclusively on European grape varieties and techniques. Saying our wines are “impressive for Michigan” is a true understatement. The wines rival those from the great wine regions of the world, hence why it is time to rethink the Michigan terroir.
