Little Farm Winery is a small producer of low intervention and low manipulation natural wine from the Similkameen Valley in British Columbia, Canada, that specializes in dry Riesling and Chardonnay.
Mulberry Tree Vineyard, the winery home site, is situated in the sunny, windy and rugged climate of Cawston, BC. A lone mulberry tree sits in the middle of the Riesling block, giving the vineyard its name. The five-acre property was purchased in 2008, the existing orchard cleared and the initial 4-acre planting of Chardonnay (2 acres) and Riesling (2 acres) taking place in 2009. Due to a harsh winter in 2009 further vines were planted in 2010, 2011 and 2012. Three different clones of Chardonnay were planted and six different clones of Riesling for added complexity.
The soil in this site is very heaving in calcium carbonate, which gives a distinct minerality to the wine. The wind in this Similkameen property, combined with the long hours of sunlight, results in low yields of small, intensely flavoured grape clusters.
The grapes are grown using organic and sustainable techniques; vinification is done through minimal intervention and the use of neutral barrels, long cool ferments, lees aging, and minimal batonage.
