Vinification is carried out using a time-honored blend of Old and New World techniques that include minimal crushing of the berries, gentle handling in new French oak barrels, and no fining or filtration prior to bottling. Covenant is made from 100 percent free-run juice. No press wine is used for our premium bottling. RED C includes a portion of the press wine from Covenant grapes, as well as the free run from its main vineyard source.
The wine is made under kosher supervision with guidance from our friends, the Herzog family, to whom we owe a great debt of gratitude. While the winemaking protocols involve classic Napa Valley methodology, the spiritual parameters required to retain kosher certification date back thousands of years.
