SUBVERSA WINES

I want to make creative, naturally grown and fermented wines for Arizona that taste proper in the deserts of Arizona. The focus is on quality of agriculture, therefore adding none of the legally allowed chemicals/fake colors upon which almost all modern wine is so dependent. I make some wines with botanicals (vermouth), some wines with spirits (fortified wine) I distill from quality fruit, and some wines that have no category at all (co-ferments, esoteric) because I cannot be bothered with the unhelpful and nebulous concept of genre!

People will have seen my ancient grain spirits in CA and AZ top restaurants/bars under the brands Workhorse Rye & MODERN ANCIENT; I am proud now to participate in AZ in a new way. Thank you for considering small maker, agriculturally-focused food/drink.
