Turf War
Much More Information...
Aaron calls this his foot in the door of Valhalla, and part of our stand against the behemoths that would take over the Valley. This tiny vineyard sits next to and slightly above Colgin’s Tychson Hill (it’s owned by he same family that lease to Colgin/LVMH). Plum on top of the coveted Aiken clay loam red basaltic rock whose super high iron content gives the wines incredible flavor and aromatics. It’s on an east facing slope, nestled up against with 40 acres of untouched forest.
This project is a total waste of time, and a complete labor of love. Single puncheon, head off for ferment then racked to two half barrels – one for us and one for the owners Roy and Kay who continue, at almost 90 years old, to help us with farming and harvest.
