A boutique, hands on, true artisan winery that is passionate about the means as much as the end. Having had the pleasure of being a close friend of the winery for years i speak from direct experience.
They practice Sustainable and organic methods to bring up their wines and advocate wines made with noninterventionist methods.
They do not beleive in naming wines after the grape variety they are made from because that is only 1/4 of the deciding factor for the final style of the wine.
