The winemaking style at Quivira emphasizes balance and transparency of terroir, utilizing thoughtful low-input winemaking to produce wines that proudly showcase their varietals and origins. In crafting these wines, Hugh uses a light touch when working with raw materials. This is not a hands-off approach, and it simply means that manipulation is intentionally and thoughtfully minimized to only those operations the wine truly needs. It requires more engagement via frequent observation and tasting to know best when and when not to intervene. Hugh likes to develop complexity judiciously using a few techniques: blending, co-fermentation, phased harvesting, and barrel aging - both oak and acacia wood.
