When DeSante purchase grapes, they call a local friend who owns a great vineyard. There is a short conversation which is followed by a walk in the same vineyard.
They talk about the wine they are going to make and agree on farming practices. They end the walk with a handshake agreement.
We envisioned wines that would be fresh, fragrant, elegant and flavorful – wines that we hope will be enjoyed among friends, telling stories and sharing dreams. Nearly a decade later, we would love to share the story of these wines that come from the very special vineyards we have discovered on our journey.
Katharine and David DeSante are dedicated to protecting and preserving the history and land from which their wines are made.
