shawn johnson - amulet estate

I recently sat down with Shawn Johnson of Amulet Estate, who shared the revolution in winemaking processes brought by innovative software and fermentation techniques. His story intertwines with mine as I recall my years learning the winemaking craft from mentors

Come with us behind the scenes of Amulet Winery, where attention to detail and a passion for quality over quantity yield wines that evoke the land and the artists who shape them. Shawn shares his unique approach to handling newly crushed grapes with warming before fermentation and his extraction targets as measured by Winexray. He showed up with data to provide context to his winemaking practices aimed at maximizing rich mouthfeel in his Cabernets.
