The concept of organic wine farming is really quite old. If you think about it, vineyards were organic for thousands of years before the invention and use of pesticides. Katrina and her husband were the first certified organic vineyards in California and if that wasn’t enough, they became the first biodynamic vineyard certified in California. A fabulous conversation that took us in many directions…but one thing is for sure, the wines are extraordinary and are exemplary versions of organic examples. You may want to hear her answer when I mentioned that “if we fertilize with horse $hit, won’t the wine taste like horse $hit?”
Katrina Frey is the real deal. Try to keep up with her.
