About Glasshead Wine Co.
Glasshead Wine Co. is named for the transparent glass head — an object that reveals everything within it, through which light passes unobstructed, from which nothing is hidden. The estate declares complete transparency in winemaking: Grenache and Syrah that show exactly what the El Pomar District calcareous limestone terrain produced in a specific vintage, without obscuring additions or subtracting alterations.
The El Pomar District boutique produces Grenache and Syrah from calcareous limestone estate vineyard sources with the transparency philosophy the glasshead name implies. The winemaking approach is minimalist — interventions only when necessary, nothing added that the wine doesn't require, no technique applied for aesthetic effect rather than quality improvement.
The appointment-only format keeps the transparency dialogue present in every tasting.
