Harvest season in California is more than just picking grapes—it’s the culmination of an entire year’s work in the vineyard. Every decision, from pruning to canopy management to harvest timing, impacts the character of the wines you’ll taste in the glass. We’re thrilled to welcome Jamey Whetstone, winemaker and visionary, to guide us through this journey of terroir, sustainability, and style.
Exploring Three Distinct Labels
One of the most fascinating aspects of Jamey’s work is how he differentiates his labels, each designed to highlight a specific philosophy of winemaking and approach to branding.
🌱 Commitment to Sustainability
-Sustainability is a cornerstone of Jamey’s philosophy. His wines reflect environmentally conscious practices such as:
-Careful soil and water management to preserve resources.
Minimal intervention in the cellar to allow grapes to express their natural character.
-A focus on biodiversity and healthy vineyards, ensuring longevity and resilience. By respecting the land, Jamey ensures each vintage is not only expressive, but also a part of a sustainable winemaking future.
Join us for this educational tasting and conversation with Jamey Whetstone, and explore how branding, terroir, and sustainability all shape the story of California wine. Don't forget to order your charcuterie board ahead of time!
