Wines

Vines managed under an organic system - making the healthiest wines we can. Our vines are carefully managed under an organic system. Although not certified this ensures we, and our patrons are enjoying the healthiest wines we can make.

Our wines are hand picked, hand made, minimal intervention, with our reds unfined and unfiltered.  No other winery in the world, that I am aware of, has its customers determine the price of wine that they are buying. Our 'Cardinals' set the prices and keep the winemaker honest and ego free while keeping our patrons loyal and engaged as reflected in our philosophical label “Aequitas"
