Product Description
We are located on Mount Hunger at the edge of the forest in the Chateauguay and in the Piedmont chain of hills in Barnard, Vermont. Here we grow alpine wine and ciders. Our land has been part of small homestead farming for over two hundred years. On the farm, we attend to the care and observation of our native terroir, a whole-farm and diverse agriculture where we are not only growing wine, but also vegetables, fruits, flowers, and herbs for ourselves and our tiny kitchen and for our spontaneous, always last minute pop-up tasting room/wine bar and supper club Hart: tavernetta + bar a vin. We farm four parcels of vineyard: the homefarm vineyard les bonnes femmes, a joint project just across the road which will become part of the homefarm cuvees, les forestieres, and two older parcels of vineyard in the Champlain Valley, les carouges and i selvatici. The work we do at the farm and winery, both in the field and in the cellar, is guided by organic, permaculture, and biodynamic thought. We try to let all elements of the farm speak for themselves accompanied by our stewardship. Our mission is to care for our land in creative and natural ways, make way for the honest narrative told by the wines and ciders that express our unique landscape and each vintage year, and share in and support the spirited food and agriculture of our community.
A blend of La Crescent and Frontenac Gris. Such a lovely, detailed wine. It tastes quite natural with lovely peach, pear, apple and spice notes. Appealing with nice complexity and fine acidity on a crisp finish.
