Lost Slough is 300 acres of sustainably grown vines in the Clarksburg, CA appellation. This unusually cool, mineral-rich appellation is hidden amongst the channels and surrounded by the Sacramento River. The vineyard, which was once below sea level, has sandy soils with scattered shell fragments, giving our wines a distinctive salinity characteristic.

Our natural process uses wild fermentation, minimal to no filtration, no fining, and no additives. We start by hand-harvesting our grapes at night to keep them naturally cool. The stems were then gently removed and the berries (skin, seed, pulp & juice) were cold soaked several days until natural fermentation began. The wine was pumped over the skins once a day, extracting the natural skin phenolics, which caused the "orange" color. Once fermented dry, the grapes were gently pressed, then barrel aged for six months before being discovered, by you.
