Interesting article by MiraHoneycutt on the embracing of Amphora vinifications in Paso:
https://pasoroblespress.com/lifestyle/paso-winemakers-embrace-the-art-of-amphora-vinification/.
In the article, we find that amphora ferments allows the wine to display its terroir better than ferments in other vessels.
Hmmmm.....that sounds like a refrain I've heard before somewhere!!
These amphora are apparently Italian-made. Elisabetta Foradori uses clay vessels from Jose Padilla, a Spanish guy that many regard
as the Stradivarius of clay vessels. I don't know of any of them in use in Calif, though.
