Front Porch Wines with Winemaker Sebastien Pochan

“We think sustainable and conscious farming makes a huge difference. That’s why our vineyards are meticulously farmed and certified organic.” Front Porch Wines

Meet the Winemaker Sebastien Pochan

Sebastien heads the wine program at Front Porch Farm, bringing his 26 years of experience working with Rhone varietals
(he is French after all) and passion for natural winemaking to each and every vintage he gets his hands on.

Sebastien creates wines that express the uniqueness of our vineyard sites, are food friendly, and that mirror our commitment to growing organic grapes of the highest quality.

Our Winemaking Philosophy

We believe in our grapes and we don't feel the need to inoculate our fermentation with selected yeast or feed them with inorganic nutrients or overprotect them with large amounts of sulfur dioxide. We also believe that blending enhances a wine's balance and complexity which is why we planted grapes that have historically worked well together. This gives us the flexibility to adapt to a vintage's characteristics and deliver compelling wines year after year.

We are certified organic, and we believe in keeping the microflora and microfauna in our soils as well as our beneficial insects alive and striving. Roots and leaves need allies; they cannot do it alone in a sustainable way. We are not just growing plants; we are also supporting a whole ecosystem, and this takes time, experience, and dedication.

 

Join us for Wine Tasting on Wednesday and Saturday.
Wednesday, 5:00 – 8:30 pm | Saturday, 4:00 – 6:00 pm

“Sometimes wine’s allure is not so much its flavor or its alcohol as a sense of adventure—a uniqueness that promises an experience only a few willing people can share.” Napa Valley Register Wine
