{"title":"BEHRENS \u0026 HITCHCOCK","description":"\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eBEHRENS FAMILY WINERY is a boutique winery in the truest sense. Owned by Les Behrens and Lisa Drinkward, who’ve made wine under the BEHRENS \u0026amp; HITCHCOCK label since 1993, BEHRENS FAMILY WINERY produces small lots of six or seven wines a year at its winery perched high on top of Spring Mountain in Napa Valley. Each wine is a low tech labor of love: crushed into one-ton T-bins, punched down by hand, gently transferred to barrel, and bottled unfined and unfiltered. One only has to look at Les and Lisa’s hands during harvest to know their wines are truly “hand-crafted.” The couple also gravitates toward small, interesting and low-yielding vineyard sites, working with growers who they know, like and trust, and who are as obsessive about quality as they are. For Les and Lisa, it’s all about letting the vineyards steal the show, and allowing the wines to speak for themselves.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/9864\/7939\/files\/Behrens_Vineyards_2_480x480.jpg?v=1599434751\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"2003-behrens-hitchcock-beckstoffer-to-kalon-heavyweight","title":"2003 Behrens Hitchcock Beckstoffer To Kalon The Heavyweight - 93 pts - 750ml","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e2003 Beckstoffer To-Kalon Heavyweight The 2003 The Heavy Weight from the Thorevilos Vineyard co-owned and farmed by David Abreu and well-known wine producer Ric Foreman is a blend of 50% Merlot 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and equal parts Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc.
