Description Of History And Philosophy:
Started with a small life savings and a fistful of credit cards, the Ransom Project was launched in 1997, producing small amounts of grappa, eau d'vie and brandy. Gin and whiskey were added to the lineup in 2007. The intent of Ransom Wine Co. is to create artisan crafted wines that exemplify true varietal character and express the individuality of the growers, vineyard sites, and vintages. Their belief is that wine is best made by hand with minimal intervention and minimal use of mechanization, chemicals, computers, and high tech laboratory analyses. Call it path of least resistance, laziness, low budget or anything that seems to fit. They prefer to call it "keeping it real". Very hands on, low tech, low hype.
