Bienvenue dans le club des découvreurs de vin

La Feuille de Vigne mapovino | Goat at Large I just came back from visiting Medlock Ames, a winery farm in Alexander Valley, in Sonoma. I first heard about them at last year’s Wine 2.0 event, although they are anything but high-tech – in all the right ways. I was visiting to get some pictures and basic data to use as a test for a small Mapovino demo we are hosting next week, and Medlock Ames is a great example of the kind of geographically specific, sustainable winery that we want to showcase. At first glance, Medlock Ames is well within a trend sweeping many wineries: a sustainably farmed, organic vineyard that has adopted a lot of biodynamic practices to boot. Wait, I just said “conventional organic.” In any case, Ames does pay attention to every piece of the ecosystem. But that’s to be expected from a premium grape grower. But using a horse and plough? And Medlock Ames is certainly wild. Huh? Technorati Tags: medlockames, mapovino
