Hi :) I'm Trevor.
I started making wine in 2020 and started farming small vineyards in 2021. I've been farming my current site on Whidbey Island in western Washington since 2023. We are in a pretty fringe climate here - a short growing season with very little heat. I'm working mostly with an early-ripening clone of pinot noir, and a beautiful but not widely-planted aromatic grape called Schoenburger (I'm really excited about this one!).
The farming is all done by myself and a very crucial rotating cast of friends (thank you guys <3). Farming is all organic and no-till, and I'm starting to incorporate some biodynamic sprays as well -- mostly because I'm interested in sourcing any nutrient amendments from the immediate local environment.
The winemaking is all done by me. I've been having fun experimenting with different vessels for elevage and masceration times in an attempt to find what suits the wines from this climate best. I've been focusing on making red wines mostly, but also do some small batches of pink and sparkling wines. I typically do not sulfur the wines, and I make about 2 barrels per year.
