Winemaking: Sediment

Rather than fining or filtering the Life Within, we much prefer simple, pure, alive, vibrant expressions from our wines. If it was in the vineyard, winery and vintage then it's in our wines -- but with little else.

Sediment: Pure vs. Clear

Rather than fining or filtering the Life Within (by adding bentonite, PVPP, gelatin, casein, isinglass, egg albumin, other) we much prefer simple, pure, alive, vibrant expressions from our wines. If it was in the vineyard, winery and vintage then it's in our wines--but with little else.

Many critics and consumers are returning to a preference for natural wines. These wines may not be clear, but they are as pure as can be.

Sediment: results from minimal intervention, and decisions to not add agents/ or treat wine which removes haze, sediment (grape pulp, skins, yeast), or acids by precipitating essence of the wine out prior to bottling.

What remains in the bottle is the fruit of the vine from that vintage in its holistic form, and is perfectly safe.

Decanting the wine through a screen leaves the Best of both worlds: the wine developed special character from the Life Within, and you can admire its sediment from afar if you must...
