Farmstead Wines: Small Producers, Honest Wines




There is lots to love about Farmstead Wines. Not only is founder, Anthony Nicalo , passionate about selling delicious wines made with organic grapes and no additives but he also utilizes innovative and far-reaching business techniques involving technology and community supported agriculture.

All of Farmstead's wine offerings are carefully chosen from small producers who do not use chemical fertilizers, herbicides or fungicides. Additionally, these wines are made with native yeasts and have minimal added sulfites.

There are some great Holiday Wine Packages from Farmstead available right now as well.

And for those wine lovers looking to have a deeper relationship with the wine producers they purchase from, there is the Vinaroon CSA program. CSA stands for community supported agriculture. This wine club program allows consumers to purchase wines directly from small producers that would not normally be available in North America. Club members get discount pricing, detailed updates and videos about vineyard progress and winemaking techniques, as well as invitations to special events.
