| TERROIR |
Our 6 acres of vines are planted
in Dutchess Cardigan, a somewhat gravelly loam of great depth. The
natural pH is 6.3, and the soil is rich in nutrients and well balanced in
minerals, without the need for artificial amendments. |

VITICULTURE |
Our PINOT NOIR vines are all
traditional Dijon clones grafted on American rootstock. They are hand-planted and hand-trained onto a VSP trellis system. Every year, at
least 30% of the grapes are pruned and discarded to maintain the intensity
and character which are our trademarks. |
