Old World Winery | 'Single Cloud' Chilled Red

Great with sausage pizza, spicy tofu, chicken or ribs – right off the BBQ and smothered in sauce. Serve with watermelon and feta salad for a light, refreshing meal.

Darek Trowbridge is one of the OG Cali natural winemakers - having made low-intervention wine in Sonoma for 20 years, way before it was a thing.  In fact, he named his winery ‘Old World’ because he’s all about a return to the old world methods of his grandfather Lino Martinelli (of Martinelli wine/cider fame), who started making wine in the early 1900s with no technology or chemicals.  Darek adds nothing to the wine except a minimal amount of protective sulfur before bottling. He directly farms or manages the farming for all the vineyards he works with and uses just his own feet to stomp the grapes. He doesn’t use temperature controls in the cellar and feels strongly that using only the native yeast from the vineyard is the best way to express the natural beauty in that wine.
