Sonoma, California— We’re happy to be able to offer a little piece of California natural wine history! From American legend of natural wine Tony Coturri, this is a multi-vintage (with some barrels going back to 2010) blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carignan, Merlot, and Zinfandel. Grapes are hand-harvested, destemmed and spontaneously ferment and age in neutral oak barrels for at least a year from base vintage before bottling unfined, unfiltered, no additional SO2. 14.8% ABV
Coturri Winery is situated on Sonoma Mountain, above the tiny hamlet of Glen Ellen, in the region know as the Valley of the Moon. It was founded in 1979 by Harry "Red" Coturri and his sons Tony and Phil. Red learned how to make wine during Prohibition and the Great Depression from his father Enrico, who immigrated to America from Farneta, Italy in 1901. Today, Tony is custodian of the wine made here and remains true to the traditional methods of his predecessors.
