Only The Good Juice.
Carefully curated by our founder these producers make exceptional ORGANIC wines and embrace vinocity’s regenerative farming philosophy.
Yamakiri Wines
This is where it all started for Vinocity. Searching out forward-thinking farmers, working with Fukuoka (One-Straw Revolution) methods, I came across Lisa Bauer and her Yamakiri wines. Three days later we were walking through Filligreen Farm, a little slice of Eden in Anderson Valley, and I understood Vinocity's core mission: to support farmers and winemakers, making singular terroir-driven wines, while encouraging farming practices centered on climate solutions. Lisa's farming encourages a deeper ecology; a regenerative future. Her wines are unique, powerful expressions of her lands, Anderson Valley and the Yorkville Highlands
Azolla - Wines of Renewal
Brain-child of Alex Crangle, Azolla wines are born of inspiration. When Alex told me about his vision for his wine, I realized we had been upon the same path, I knew we were to work together. And, Azolla in the name, to boot! Azolla is a wunder-plant that played a pivotal role in cooling our planet 50 million years ago. If you haven't heard how Azolla plays an integral part in saving the world, click here . Alex's wines are garrulous and boisterous, not as focused and pure as wines have become, they have more soul and grit and joie de vivre. Wine as personality.
Mylan wines
These wines are the work of Benjamin Wasby in Hood River, Oregon, working with fruit from Columbia Valley, Washington fruit. Working without chemical intervention, he's making pure, lithe expressions of Viognier and Cabernet Franc. When was the last time you tasted an acid-driven Viognier? Right?! Smashing juice!
Beckham Estate Vineyard
The Beckham's represent a farming model aligned with Vinocity’s vision, and they are tremendous winemakers, artists and humans. We're so proud to get to represent their work. AD Beckham wines are produced in Andrew's hand-made amphora, while the Estate wines see some time in wood. Regardless the vessel, these wines are dynamic living beings from a distinctive producer with homegrown vineyards.
Tenute Pacelli
This is a recently converted to organic estate run by a mother and her two daughters. They're working in Calabria with both indigenous and international varietals. Their Barone Bianco Riesling is an oxidative style and a standout white from the region. We're super excited to introduce their wines to the United States.
Villa I Cipressi
Brunello and Rosso from estate vineyards to the southwest of Montalcino, about a kilometer down the road toward Grosseto. These wines are classically styled, with fine-grained oak tannin that's not overly-extracted or spoofed-up. This family does things the old-fashioned way, except with photovoltaic power and no-till beyond-organic farming. Drink now and any time the sun goes down.
Ca' Montanari Opera | 02
Surrounded by our vineyards, the Cellar is the beating heart of Opera|02. Our effervescent organic wines come to life here, according to a constantly evolving process that uses the most modern technologies, to guarantee respect for the environment and the consumer. Being close to the field, our Cellar allows a quick transport of the grapes, that come intact and rich in scents, flavours and all the aromas of the vineyard, characteristics you will find every time a new bottle is opened.
Protector Cellars
The world’s first climate-positive winery. Certified sustainable grapes, efficient packaging, beyond neutral footprint. No excuses, no compromises, no crappy wine.
Casebianche
Elisabetta and Pasquale Mitra are the epitome of conscientious farmers (and they still till a little bit). We love the touchless touch of their winemaking and the purity and verve in their wild pet-nats and playful blends. Farmed with biodynamic principles, made without chemicals, these wines are both classic and of the moment.
Podere Erica
Podere Erica take seriously their role as custodians of their extraordinary property in the heart of Chianti. Not only do they uphold the long traditions of wine production, but the also to care for the land in a way that benefits the environment and future generations.
Join Vinocity’s book
The requisite for inclusion in our book is delightful, living wines and thoughtful soil biome focused farming. If you share this passion or want to make the transition to carbon sequestrative farming practices please contact us.
Golden Cluster
We don't just support Jeff Vejr's wines because Jeff Vejr is pretty cool, or even because he's making some of the most interesting wines from the most unusual grapes in Oregon. We support Jeff Vejr's 'Golden Cluster' wines because we support healthy soils. Each of our producers makes wines from a place, a tiny piece of earth's biome, that we hope we can enhance with our support. That's why we don't support wineries pouring poison into their land.
Jeff sources his grapes from 'On Wine Hill'- the historic David Hill Vineyard, and Wirtz vineyard next door. These places, Wine Hill... they grow soil. They create biochar. They steward their land and its future as a source of life. From these vineyards' old-vine fruit, Jeff makes wines clean and pure and without chemicals. Bright, balanced and boisterous. We are excited to have these wild wines to drink and share.
J.Dirt Biodynamic Wines
We believe in making the planet better by caring for our land with Biodynamic® and regenerative farming practices to make wines that we can share with our community. Our wines show that caring for the earth can be rewarding and enjoyable.
Moroder
Moroder is the oldest estate in our book, and some of Vinocity’s most loyal supporters. We couldn't be more proud to represent their work. No-till, certified organic, old vines. They even operate their winery on self-generated solar. They are an ideal for Vinocity’s farming model, and super nice folks, with statuesque, serious Montepulciano, and playful bright Malvasia.
Quercia Grossa
Pierpaolo Bertolini! He is the first farmer I found that talks about his rejuvenative practices. Growing fruit way beyond the conscripts of organic, he focuses on soil health and biodiversity. The intention shows in his chemical-free and soul-steeped elixirs. Living wines, these have age-worthiness that few natural wines can claim. This is the way, the truth and the life.
George Wine Company
We love George’s wines. These are the wines that made California Pinot Noir famous. (My wife and I served Ceremonial at our wedding). We currently only sell two of George's wines: Hansen vineyard, an organic dairy farm that has an adjoining vineyard, and Ceremonial, an organic Martinelli family vineyard. When 100% of his production qualifies for our no-fertilizers and ‘cides commitments, we'll carry 100%. His wines are terrific!
Alta Orsa & Orsa Wines
ALTA ORSA is the story of our land, the vision and labor of winemaker Martin Bernal-Hafner, Roger Peng, and Ricardo Garcia. Farming is the core chapter of our story and has been for more than three decades. As stewards of this 160-acre mountain property, we farm in a holistic manner – meaning we use organic and regenerative agricultural practices. Patience, observation, science, and experimentation guide our approach. Since the planting of our high-density vineyard in the late 1980s, we have practiced no-till farming, minimal organic sprays, no tractors between the rows, and no herbicides under the vine. This leads us to craft truly unique, balanced, and age-worthy estate wines.
