 Vineyards are life. Instead of having one large estate, LFC has thirteen small estates. Instead of one frantic vineyard manager trying to maintain one expansive estate, LFC has thirteen. Each site is unique in its soil type, slope, microclimate, and exposure. Each site is farmed by its owner exclusively for LFC. We are fortunate to buy our grapes from guys who love wine, relish in a challenge, and own parcels of land well suited to raising vines. Our terrain is varied. The glaciers carved out pastoral rolling hills but their retreat also dictated that the vineyards sites must be carefully chosen. We look for west and south facing slopes, conditions which help the vines capture the precious glow of the sun. Each vineyard has a story to tell and it is being told right now in the wine. Follow the wines and you will hear an unwritten tale. Meet the growers by checking out ther individual pages under The Vineyards tab. |
