Scar of the Sea Grenache Hofer Vineyard Cucamonga Valley 2023 750ml

Hofer Ranch is an oasis wedged between the Ontario Airport and a sea of Industrial buildings. The vineyard was planted in the 1930’s on its own roots in the sandy soils of Cucamonga Valley. The vines are head trained and have been farmed using organic practices from the beginning. This wine is made with a nod to how wines have been made in this region for decades. The grapes were fermented in an old redwood tank with native yeast and no additions. The wine was aged in old french oak barrels for 10 months before being bottled with minimal SO2 and without fining or filtration. 168 cases produced.
