Ampelos Cellars

“Ampelos is the Greek word for vine. Soil.. Vines.. Wines.. – this is the order in which great wines are made. We are resolute in our passion to produce hands on, minimally invasive wines that both whisper and shout about the terroir. Our vineyard is the 1st in the US to be certified organic, sustainable and biodynamic. Our commitment to eco-friendly, natural farming and winemaking is evident in every sip. We approach winemaking with respect for traditional practices and openness to experimentation. We believe that the journey is the destination, and prioritize creating quality wines sustainably.”
