Thirty Bench Vineyard and Winery
The three partner/winemakers all consider
winemaking a personal art form, and share a passion
for finely crafted wines. Winemaking at Thirty Bench is a team approach.
The goal is to create wines of superior quality and varietal character,
the means, integration of vineyard and winery and using artisan
production methods. All three have been making wine for decades,
in total representing 150 years of winemaking experience.
Those
who visit Thirty Bench Wines on tour will have the opportunity to
experience the art of winemaking from start to finish as they enjoy
one of the many award-winning wines while overlooking the vineyards
and developing harvest. Visitors are invited to sample from a variety
of Cabernets, Merlots and Chardonnays, as well as Rieslings ranging
from bone-dry to Icewines, including Botrytis-affected wines.
Our special premium wines display outstanding flavour intensity,
which is achieved by crop thinning. In August, a certain
percentage of grapes are taken off the vines and thrown away, causing
the remaining grapes to become highly concentrated
therefore
producing a more concentrated wine. Thirty Bench offers several
private tour and tasting packages.
