Take an in-depth look at Biodynamic farming at Benzger, with Winemaker Lisa Amaroli. The Sonoma County Gazette recently visited and highlighted Lisa’s hard working approach and gleaned insights to being female winemaker. “In terms of favorite wines, Lisa finds it challenging to choose. “There’s artistry in crafting every wine, and each offers a unique expression of the land it comes from,” she says.”
The Benziger Merlot was Featured in Uproxx “The Best Sustainable Wines For Eco (& Budget!)-Conscious Drinkers“. “This wine is lean and clean but still has depth. It can easily pair with a variety of foods — lighter and heartier dishes. However, the fruit and spice of this well-rounded wine could be enjoyed totally on its own.”
Highlighted in Devin Parr’s article “12 Wineries with Sustainability Practices Worth Toasting This Earth Month“, we have been proud to farm biodynamically for almost 25 years. “The vineyards are certified organic and biodynamic, and the team employs eco-friendly practices, such as cover cropping, composting, and natural pest control, to maintain the health of the soil and the grapes. Benziger’s wines are made using natural yeasts and minimal intervention techniques, such as handpicking and barrel fermentation, to express the terroir of the vineyards.”
Our La Reyna vineyard Pinot Noir is known as “The Queen”, showcasing “Highly impressive fruit and complexity on the nose presage additional engaging characteristics on the palate, all of which beautifully carry for lingering length.” —Arizona Daily Sun “By the bottle: Wines for Mother’s Day“
