We take pride in each and every one of our varietals! Each of these wines is made of at least 75% (usually much closer to 100%) of the named grape. Everything at Canyon Wind Cellars is hand picked to guarantee superior fruit quality.

All of our whites are fermented in stainless steel; with the exception of Chardonnay, which finishes it’s fermentation in French and American oak, and then ages for nine months before bottling.

We crush and stem all of our reds prior to their pre-fermentation cold soaking. Post-fermentation, our reds are placed into our oak program consisting of new, one and two-year old French and American oak. Depending upon the varietal, these wines will spend anywhere from 11 to 22 months aging in our underground barrel cellar (the only one of its kind in Colorado!).
