Winemaking

Hands off. Eyes on.

At Limerick Lane, winemaking is a pursuit of balance—where power meets finesse, and tradition meets intuition. Tucked away at the end of a quiet road, our vineyard has always followed its own path. For over a century, this land has quietly yielded some of the most distinctive Zinfandel and Rhône varietals, shaped by a unique combination of soil, wind, fog, and meticulous care.

Our approach is simple: hands on in the vineyard, light touch in the cellar. Farming and winemaking are inseparable here—every decision is guided by the land itself. We carefully tend each vine, allowing it to thrive naturally, then step back and let the fruit speak. The majority of our grapes are destemmed and fermented in small open-top fermenters, with a mix of native and selected yeasts, depending on the health of the fermentation. The wine then rests in mostly neutral French oak for 12 to 18 months, preserving purity and a true sense of place.

The result is wines of depth and elegance—rich yet fresh, structured yet vibrant. They capture not just the essence of Limerick Lane but the hands-on care that goes into every bottle.
