Anthill Farms Winery: Californian elegance
Website: https://www.anthillfarms.com/
Anthill Farms began with 8 barrels of wine in 2024, and was started by three winemakers who’d met while working vintage at celebrated Sonoma winery Williams Selyem – Anthony Filiberti, David Low, and Webster Marquez. They shared a vision for fresher wines. Production has risen since then to 24 000 bottles a vintage, more or less, from special sites in Sonoma Coast, Russian River Valley and Mendocino County. Anthony Filiberti is the chief winemaker and he has low-intervention leanings.
