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.
It’s inspired by old fashioned Chianti and Côte Rôtie, where a little white fruit is included in the blend. Juicy, bright, fresh and berryish with some spiciness and hints of earth. Very fresh, meaty, spicy cherry fruit with lovely focus and elegance on the finish.

The robe is a lovely deep strawberry red—surprising given this grape’s skin tone. The wine shows a savory, faintly mélange of berries and straw. As is characteristic of many of this winery’s reds, it has a pronounced rosiness, both petals and hips. The palate shows subtle berry, citrus and stone fruit tones with minerality on the finish.

An Amarone-style wine made from the Vermont native grape Frontenac. Deep coloured and vibrant with lovely acidity and juicy bright black cherries and plums, with a hint of lift and some apple notes. The palate is spicy, vivid, juicy and fresh with delicious cherry and raspberry fruit on a fresh finish.

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.

A deep burnished gold color. The bouquet is wildly perfumed, redolent of antique roses, gardenia, sweet ginger, and orange liqueur. Deeply savory on the palate with its leesy and almost bitter, like bitter almond, with a vein of saline minerality running through it. There are more rose petals plus other flowery notes, along with chestnut honey and roasted hazelnut. The texture is almost waxy, and the acidity feels modest on the finish.

Pale yellow in colour. Made from the hybrid Brianna grape which traces its heritage to several types of Muscat and Grenche Blanc. You’ll find heady floral and white peach aromas with a textured mouthfeel and bracing acidity on the finish.
Don Julio González began his journey in the world of tequila in 1942. He soon realized that to create a tequila that stands apart, one must control every aspect of the process, from the cultivation of the agave to the bottling of the final product. He then established his distillery, La Primavera, and spent nearly forty years perfecting the craft that would produce extraordinary tequila with every bottle. At first, Don Julio only shared his tequila with friends. But soon word spread, and Tequila Don Julio quickly became the most sought after tequila in Mexico. Today, the world is learning what Mexico already knows: that it is passion above all else that makes a great tequila.
Old gold color. Grilled lime, floral talc, coconut custard, and toffee aromas are inviting. A soft, silky entry leads to a dryish medium-to-full body of creamy vanilla, toffeed roasted nuts, gingerbread, and dried pineapples. Finishes with a tangy dried topical citrus, white chocolate, and vibrant peppery spice fade. Well balanced and flavorful.
Acquired in 2012 by Baron Benjamin de Rothschild, the Rimapere vineyard occupies 26 hectares of grapevines in the heart of Marlborough’s iconic “golden mile” in Wairau Valley, home to some of the region’s most expressive whites. Rimapere is a new partnership between Baron Benjamin de Rothschild’s owner of Château Clarke and Château des Laurets, and Terry Peabody owner of Craggy Range. Rimapere means five arrows in Maori and refers to the Rothschild family emblem which symbolises the five brothers who forged this dynasty of entrepreneurs and were the sons of Mayer Amschel Rothschild. The vineyards are ideally situated in the prestigious Rapaura sites, in the heart of Marlborough.
‘Plot 101’ refers to the eponymous parcel of this vineyard with an exceptionally preserved and magical setting. Benefiting from a terroir of rare intensity, the grapes of this plot selection are hand-picked before being delicately pressed and then aged on lees. The bouquet shows aromas of fragrant white flowers, which then gives way to a fine mouthfeel with citrus flavours on a crisp finish.
It was Douglas Green’s ground-breaking realisation that the grapes from the Western Cape’s varied vineyards should be combined to express the best qualities and characteristics of each region that lead to the development of his eponymous range of sought-after wines. As vintner, viticulturist and entrepreneur he paved the way for the creation of consistently original wines in his signature style. Today we remain inspired by his extensive knowledge of the winelands, technical winemaking prowess and uncanny understanding of our customers’ desires. It is his pioneering spirit that lies at the heart of our winemaking philosophy and encourages us to push boundaries and question the status quo. And it is still doing now what Douglas Green, the first owner, set out to do all those years ago. His son, Douglas Green Jr is still involved with the company ensuring that his father’s legacy lives on. The wines are now made in the Douglas Green Cellar in Wellington from grapes sourced from partner growers, the vineyards overseen by the Douglas Green’s specialist viticulturists.
A vibrant garnet with a strawberry rim. The bouquet is packed with juicy black cherry and fleshy plum aromas that tumble softly across the palate with plush mulberry and spice notes interwoven with soft, ripe tannins and subtle oak intrique for a smooth and juicy finish.
