Vision

Our goal is to produce exceptional wines that pay tribute to the distinct flavors of high altitude grapes, while minimizing intervention to allow our unique terroir to truly shine.

For centuries, high-altitudes have held a powerful allure for humans, especially winemakers. These lofty elevations are responsible for the lion's share of exceptional wines worldwide, thanks to a unique combination of factors. Longer, more even ripening periods, heightened acidity from temperature fluctuations, thicker skins due to winds, and more intense flavors from smaller clusters all contribute to extraordinary results that attract wine lovers. At the heart of it all lies the grape, the foundation of all great wine. Without exceptional grapes, it is impossible to produce high-quality wines.

A Full Partnership With Nature

However, what makes for perfect grapes also makes grape farming brutal and expensive. The terrain is often impossible to automate, relying instead on traditional, manual vine-growing methods. The sun, wind, and rain can work for or against you, making it impossible to farm without a full partnership with nature and centuries-proven methods of permaculture.
