All our vineyards as well as winery is 100% sustainably certified as well as BRC certified.Our Scheid Family Wines portfolio includes a wide range of labels form entry level to premium.

Vinification At the winery, the fruit is carefully sorted then destemmed, crushed and fermented at warm temperatures in stainless steel fermenters. Gentle punch downs are performed several times a day. Once dry, the must is pressed into stainless steel tanks for settling, then racked prior to aging on both new and neutral French oak. The time on oak imparts nuanced notes of vanilla and toast.
