crushin' on you

GET YOUR “I LOVE LUCY” ON! It’s gonna be foot stompin’, grape crushin’ good, babe. Join us for a class dedicated to wines that come from grapes crushed with pure foot-power. Winemakers get their clean feet dirty when grapes are ready, put ‘em all in buckets, and go to town. The result? Wine with more character, visual, and the pulling urge to up and become a maker. Come try some small batch beauties and see if you can taste the difference!
