Crowley Description
Crowley Wines produces 3,000 cases annually. Our small size allows for a hands-on approach from vineyard to barrel. We farm and manage the Four Winds Vineyard and work closely with our team of growers to achieve the uniqueness of each site. At harvest, freshness, lower alcohols, flavor and acidity are the touchstones of our picking decisions. Once that delicate balance is achieved we preserve it throughout the winemaking process, monitoring each cluster down the sorting table and nurturing every tank through natural fermentation to barrel. And then we wait. The winery’s release schedule is influenced by our belief that wine (like many things) benefits from patience. We age our wines for 12-20 months. Our underground barrel room provides optimal storing conditions allowing time for integration and maturity while preserving the wines’ elegance and liveliness well beyond the barrel and into bottle aging.
