Overview

America’s original craft wine, made for the people by the people. It’s bold, proud, and fiercely independent. The Federalist is about making wine our way and making it accessible to everyone. Here’s to the brave, the independent, the bold. Here’s to you. Cheers!

Aging

35% new oak is primarily American and Hungarian, with a small percentage of French. Hungarian oak mimics French with Spicy character and the American rounds it out with softly sweet vanillin’s.

Fermentation

Malolactic fermentations occur post-primary fermentation. The lees are stirred throughout malolactic fermentation, giving the wine it’s rich mouthfeel. Aging continues on the lies until blending.
