There is absolutely nothing pretentious about winemaker Ann Sperling. She walks the walk and talks the talk on sustainable, organic and biodynamic grape growing and takes a minimalist approach to making wine in the winery.

Her quest, the challenge that she issues to herself, is to reduce winemaking to the least amount of intervention as she can. That means 100% organic and biodynamic grapes and as little manipulation in the winery as possible, including wild yeast fermentations and very little filtering/fining, in the making of the wines at Southbrook Vineyards.

On Friday, March 2, Riverview Cellars’ Gewurztraminer 2010 won Silver for Best Gewurztraminer at the Cuvée Awards 2012.

Unless you’re an avid winter sport kind of person, I think you’ll probably agree when I say that winter weather makes one think of travelling to get away from the ice and snow. Now I’ve got you dreaming of an escape to warmer climes, right? Forget it. I know a place that’s just as warm (in spirit) with even better food and drink than you’ll find at any southern resort – and at a fraction of the cost. That place is wine country. Seriously.
