What is this Silt?
Silt, everyone’s favorite nutrient-rich, moisture-retaining soil is in the spotlight!
I can hear you already: “But wait, I thought that we wanted bad soils for growing wine grapes?!”
Yes…but also no.
You can find silt (aka ALLUVIAL) soils all over the place; From the Loire and Rhone Valleys in France, to the plains of Marlborough NZ, and back through the rolling hills of Tuscany.
Alluvial soiled wines are typically soft and delicate, yet fragrant.
Come see what we mean, as we open up 6 bottles that prove “Silt is Built…for growing wines”
