REGENERATIVE VITICULTURE
FRES.CO prioritizes soil and environmental health and commits to paying fair wages to people in all stages of wine production. In order to transition vineyards to organic practices, we share the costs and risks with grape farmers to produce better grapes and eliminate the use of pesticides.
NATURAL WINEMAKING
Our wines are made without cultured yeast or bacteria, and they aren’t fined, filtered, or rendered sterile. Often, a small amount of sulfur is added just prior to bottling. We also work hard to reduce our carbon footprint, using ultra-light, domestically produced, recyclable glass bottles.
COMMUNITY
The farmers are the most important part of the FRES.CO equation; together with their hardworking crews, they tend the land and vines to produce healthy fruit for stress-free fermentations. The wines are made at Magnolia Wine Services, a collective of low-intervention winemakers in Sonoma, California.
