At McHenry Hohnen, winemaking begins in the vineyard. Every decision — from pruning to harvest — is guided by a deep respect for the land and an unwavering commitment to expressing the unique character of each site. Our winery is fully certified organic and biodynamic.
Our team, led by Japo Dalli Cani, take a gentle, minimal intervention approach to their work. They allow natural fermentations, avoid unnecessary additions and handle the wine with the utmost care at every step. The team’s ethos is grounded in respect for the land, for the fruit and for the story each vineyard has to tell. Their approach is hands-off but highly attentive, allowing the nuances of each block and vintage to shine through. Under Japo's stewardship, the wines of McHenry Hohnen continue to evolve — precise, soulful expressions of one of the world’s most remarkable wine regions.
“We’re not here to manipulate the fruit. We’re here to guide it — to capture what the vineyard gives us and express it as honestly and purely as possible.”
Winemaker, Japo Dalli Cani
