EJ PRETTY: Our fruits are often hand-picked by experienced professionals to avoid damaging the fruit, vine, and soil. They are then pressed with minimal or no pressure to produce a higher quality juice. Our wines are aged for years to develop tannins, which give the wine its astringency. For post-fermentation maceration our Premium red wines are often left in contact with grape skins after fermentation to extract more tannins. We are not a mass-produced wine. Our wines are Cellar-worthy wines and are excellent-tasting and of greatest quality. proudly Napa Valley,
