"In Vino Ventus"- In Wind There is Wine
The Anemoi were the mythological Greek gods of wind who were named for the cardinal direction from which their winds came. The primary gods were Boreas (North), Apeliotes (East), Notus (South) and Zephyrus (West). Minor deities represented everything from Southeast to North-North West.
Thousands of years later, we, as grape growers in the Grand Valley, pay homage to these very winds, whether they come from the west baked by the desert and sand or from the east flowing atop the Colorado River through Debeque Canyon, which provide our hot days and cool nights both of which provide better ripening and a more complex wine. The product of estate-grown fruit, the fructifying winds and a modern spin on traditional winemaking, Anemoi is the next generation of Colorado wine.
