Slow Press Wines is a California brand owned by The Wine Group and based in Modesto, built around one idea: take the winemaking slowly. The grapes are pressed gently rather than crushed hard, so the juice comes off cleanly without bitterness from skins and seeds, and fermentation runs slow and cold to keep the fruit aromas intact. The lineup is short and focused - Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Cabernet Sauvignon - and the fruit is sourced from vineyards certified sustainable under Lodi Rules. The winery also publishes recipes chosen to sit alongside each wine, which tells you something about how these bottles are meant to be used: at the dinner table, not in the cellar. Prices stay modest, and Wine Enthusiast has recognized the Chardonnay with a Best Buy designation.
