This Cinsaut is from Preston Vineyard in Dry Creek Valley. CCOF certified. The vineyard owner, Lou Preston, was farming regeneratively in the early 1980s before that term was even a thing.
The vineyard is at the heart of Dry Creek and has a very warm climate and loamy soils. The grapes are fermented 30% whole cluster with native yeast, pressed to 1, 500L puncheon and aged for 10 months in barrel prior to bottling.
Birdhorse Wines is two fierce ladies, Corinne and Katie, bringing adventure, diversity, and rediscovery to California wines.
