Ernest Vineyards
Producer website
Family and dedication are critical concepts for us here at Ernest Vineyards. We partner with farmers who work the earth with patience, treating the soil with respect and humility. We focus on sustainable farming and elegant winemaking, applying a subtle touch to create the purest expression of each and every vintage and the land from which it came. Perhaps most important, we humbly follow in the footsteps of our namesake, Ernest Gottula, a patriarch of our extended family, who has inspired us with his honor, diligence, and heart-felt commitment to his brood. Ernest is forever memorialized in our company logo; a portrait of him by a family matriach, Joanne Thompson. One of the main reasons we make wine is to keep this legacy alive.
