Grapes: Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, & Gewürztraminer

Anthill Farms is a group of 3 friends who went against all the odds to start a winery in California. They didn’t have money saved nor were they born into the business. They were cellar rats, the guys moving hoses and cleaning floors, for some pretty significant wineries, Williams Selyem being the most influential. However, while still quite young, the three decided to pull together a tiny amount of cash and started making wine at a crushpad facility. Before long the wines had a cult following and we’ve been drinking them ever since.

Helluva Vineyard is located in Boonville, Mendocino. The fruit comes from a small parcel and coferments all together. This unique blend is vinified as a white wine with something reminiscent of the Alpine style; it’s textural, racy, and concentrated with aromatics in full force.
