Philosophy
Wine has a way of bringing people together. We are a team, brought together while pursuing the craft and study of winemaking. Gravity is a Sonoma County-based wine consultancy and custom crush facility. We provide winemaking consulting, fermentation and processing, barrel aging, a full array of analysis, and in-house bottling.
But at our core, we are a thoughtful, experienced team of winemakers driven to understand everything about wine and the methods to craft it.
Our Facility
Our facility, and every single piece of equipment here is very special to us.
Wine production spaces are complete with a sorting table and delicate de-stemmer, tank or basket press options, open and closed top tanks with hot and cold glycol, gentle Waukesha pumps, Blue Line winery hoses, Bulldog Pups, and much, much more.
Our laboratory is equipped with a broad selection of fine-tuned and precise equipments: spectrophotometer, Anton Paar Alcolyzer, densitometers, autotitrator, centrifuge, turbidimeter, carbodoseur, and more.
Then to our bottling line. The term well-oiled machine never applies so much as here. A DS-12 by US Bottlers, filler & valves by 4-D Machine, cork, screw cap and foils all applied with Bertolaso’s wonderful range of machinery, Impresstik for labels—all work together to offer a finished package.
Inquire about spaceEnology
Winemaking is often said to be an art. True. But modern wine quality is high because of science, and the studious approach our industry has taken to understanding soil, grapevines, farming, weather, oak barrels, microbiology, wine and sensory chemistry, among other fields.
These are the areas of focus we love.
