Husch makes a Late Harvest Gewurztraminer, relying on hang-time and sometimes passerillage (cutting the fruit canes) to help the grapes concentrate their sugar in the cool Anderson Valley. Noble rot (botrytis) is always welcome.

Cool, foggy nights make the Anderson Valley an ideal growing climate for cool weather grapes such as gewurztraminer and pinot noir.

The Anderson Valley's first Pinot Noir was planted by Husch in our "Knoll Vineyard" in 1971. Tony Husch had learned from Edmeades that neither Zindandel nor Cabernet could ripen on the Valley floor. So Husch thought Pinot would be worth a try.

The first harvest of Pinot Noir was ready in 1973. (See story above).

While Husch farms many of its fields with organic practices, our Fish Friendly Farming certification best sums up our sustainable practices. Sheep are used in the winter to fertilize and mow our native groundcover...
