{"title":"Poco a Poco","description":"\u003cp\u003ePoco a poco means little by little in Spanish, and that patient, incremental philosophy runs through every aspect of how Luke Bass farms grapes and makes wine in California's North Coast.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLuke Bass studied economics at UC Santa Cruz before a winemaking internship at Flowers Winery that stretched into a two-and-a-half-year stint as cellar master under Greg LaFollette. He went on to work in South Africa, Chile, and at Tandem and Hirsch wineries in Sonoma County before establishing Porter-Bass Winery in Guerneville in 2001. The Poco a Poco label was created to bring the same values -- organic grapes, natural winemaking, honest pricing -- to a wider range while the Porter-Bass Estate Winery maintained its small-lot, estate-focused production. Porter-Bass has farmed biodynamically since 1999.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMore on how they farm and work in the cellar in our \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/natural-wine-producers-primal-wine\/poco-a-poco\"\u003ePoco a Poco producer profile\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"poco-a-poco-cabernet-sauvignon-dry-creek-valley","title":"Poco a Poco Cabernet Sauvignon Dry Creek Valley 2022","description":"\u003cp\u003ePoco a Poco Cabernet Sauvignon Dry Creek Valley is crafted from organic grapes by Porter-Bass winery, with small-batch processing and careful handling at every stage. The fruit comes from Dry Creek Valley's distinctive terroir, characterized by iron-rich, well-draining gravelly soils and a climate influenced by Pacific Ocean fog that rolls through the valley. This AVA's warm days and cool nights create ideal conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon, allowing extended hang time for optimal flavor development while maintaining natural acidity. The winemaking philosophy emphasizes balanced extraction without excessive oak or overripe fruit characteristics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Poco a Poco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50480038150360,"sku":"POCO-CABSAUV","price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0019\/3363\/9735\/files\/poco-a-poco-cabernet-sauvignon-dry-creek-valley-deslop.png?v=1784587410"}],"url":"https:\/\/primalwine.com\/collections\/poco-a-poco.oembed","provider":"Primal Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
