Organic Wine Tasting with Frey Vineyards

Come out for an intimate wine-tasting event with Frey Vineyards, America’s first certified organic and Biodynamic winery. Learn about this third-generation family-owned winery, their methods, and how they care for the land as part of their process of winemaking. A representative from the winery will walk you through each tasting and each varietal will be paired with small accompanying bites.

After receiving a degree in Plant and Soil Sciences from the University of Vermont School of Agriculture, Jonathan Frei joined Frey Vineyards in 1988 (not a typo- a Frei married a Frey!) For four decades of harvest, Jonathan has evaluated each block of grapes for Brix and acid and physiological ripeness to determine optimal harvest dates. He works closely with Frey Vineyards’ many organic grape grower partners. He delights in blending the batches to achieve award-winning wines. An avid gardener and expert in native plants, Jonathan has landscaped the courtyards around the winery with California natives. He travels across the country educating our distributor partners about USDA organic, no sulfites added wines and Biodynamic wines. Today two of his three children also work for the family winery.
