The way we make wine at Frog’s Leap is fundamentally linked to the way we grow our grapes. Believing that a grapevine should be grown in healthy soil that supports all the nutrient needs of the plant, Frog's Leap has been farming organically since 1988. We believe that most of the great and historic wines of the world have been made from non-irrigated grapevines-and to that end, Frog's Leap dry farms nearly 200 acres in the Napa Valley. And to that end, we accept the premise that the greatest of wines are those that most truly reflect their soil, climate and circumstance (collectively referred to as “terroir”.) and it is the winemaker’s role to stand back and let the natural beauty of the grapes show through.
Wines made to impress rather than to satisfy will ultimately do neither. A wine that respects its sense of place, its natural balance and the glories of its natural flavors will truly give pleasure.
