We rely on our many industry partners to bring guests the best wine tasting experience. Below you’ll find a brief introduction on where and how Denver’s award-winning wine is produced.
Denver wineries source their grapes from either Palisade, Colorado or California but, they make their wine in-house. The reason is, there are no grape “vineyards” in Denver. However, this does not affect the taste of the wine. Denver winemakers or vintners never fail to deliver their promise to make excellent hand-crafted wine.
Sourcing the best quality grapes at the correct ripeness as well as considering the sugar or “brick” levels of the grape in order to determine what alcohol level the wine can produce achieves that.
The winemaking process from these urban Denver wineries is practically the same as wineries from known wine regions. The grapes are crushed and destemmed, then the vintner ferments the crushed grapes. Once it’s done fermenting, they use a presser to press out the juice grape, some in stainless steel tanks and others directly into barrels and others do both. Leaving the wine until all of the sediment falls to the bottom of their containers and undergoing a second ferment removes tannins.
Learning about this process as you taste wine and socialize can make for the perfect corporate event idea.
Our partner wineries in Denver produces relatively young wines, but some do sell library aged wines that could be 18 or more years old. Your guests, whether clients or staff members will be delighted by the wine.
