Wine maker notes The very sweet Muscat grapes are the first to come in each harvest season. Our winemaking process for Terra d’Oro Moscato is dramatically different from our other wines. Upon arriving at the winery fifty percent of the fruit is immediately sent to the press ensuring added delicacy. The rest of the grapes are destemmed and crushed to stainless steel tank and left overnight before pressing. Referred to as the "cap and drain” method, the majority of whole berries float atop the tank. This delivers more varietal intensity. After gentle pressing, seventy-five percent of the juice is inoculated with yeast. The balance of sweet juice is stored at very low temperatures. Only by eventually blending wine from grapes both crushed and uncrushed, sweet, and fermented dry are we able to achieve such balance.
Producer Some say you can taste the history of a place in a glass of wine. Perhaps that’s why the wines of Montevina are brimming with such intense flavors and bold character. Spanish for “mountain vine,” Montevina brings a different altitude-and attitude-to its winemaking. Crafted at our Terra d’Oro Winery, Montevina wines reflect the soul of the Sierra Foothills. The first winery to be established following the end of Prohibition, the wines of Montevina resurrected Amador County’s legendary wine industry. Since then, we’ve been known for crafting deeply flavored, robust wines that capture the unique character of this remarkable region. We got our start in the Sierra foothills back in 1970, picking up where Prohibition left off. Our first wines were released in 1973, and Montevina quickly became known for robust, full-bodied red wines-especially Zinfandel and Barbera-which revived interest in the historic Amador wine region. Today Montevina owns and manages 400 acres of estate vineyards, including several notable, old-vine vineyards. Our state-of-the art winery is spectacular, and features a spacious, friendly tasting room and a beautiful vineyard-ringed patio where you can relax with a glass of wine. There’s nothing quite like escaping to Amador wine country-we hope you’ll come and visit us soon at Montevina.
