NO SULFUR ADDED

“Not to be Toyed With!” 

Lane has been doing it her way since 1981 when she first started making wine in Santa Barbara.  Lane is a woman who knows what she wants and knows how to do it!  

Make no mistake, we are all a team, but the winemaking is all Lane.  And we wouldn’t have it any other way.  Lane has been messing around with fresh ginger root in side experiments for years.  This project finally puts it out there to the world.  

If you appreciate women who take on the world and have been strong and proud even through the early 2000’s when picking your grapes for 12.5% alcohol was NOT COOL but still the right thing to do...  If you think low alcohol wines came out of nowhere, think again.  Actually, thank Lane.  

And if you ask Lane why she picks grapes for12.5% alcohol, she’ll tell you, “ I don't pick grapes for an alcohol. I pick when it's time and I don't care what the alcohol will be.”  So take that.

“The Dude Abides.” 

 It’s Will’s unabashed vision that calmly directs this ship.  Ask Lane and she’ll tell you, “He doesn’t just direct the ship, he built it!”  

Will wears many hats.  He started a non-profit called “Save the Waves” an international foundation dedicated to protecting surf ecosystems for long-term coastal conservation.  

When Will sees potential he finds a way to achieve it. In 2020 he and his wife Kali planted 5 acres of Pinot Noir around his home.  The new vineyard is named after his late father, Warner Henry.  Warner started the Henry Wine Group in 1985 which is arguably the very first example of a fine wine distributor in the US.  So, is it any surprise that Will has bottled the first wine made with Ginger?  

Being the first is kind of thing in the Henry Family and the Dude most definitely abides!
