Announcement from Hanzell Vineyards' Instagram page: 

"It’s been a long time coming but it’s official…we’re now certified organic through CCOF!! For years, we have been farming this land with intention and commitment to ensure the health of our ecosystem while considering our impact on the tiniest fungi to the grandest of trees, and everything and everyone in between. Care for our vines, the woodlands, native wildlife, grazing animals and more than anything, the health and well-being of the people who make up this Hanzell family have driven every decision we make. It feels good to hold this sign and to be able to say that we’re certified organic, knowing all the hard work over the years means something to people beyond our front gate. We look forward to many more years, farming and sustaining this treasure we all love so much."

According to the USDA organic database online, in addition to the grapes, the winery has also been certified organic, which is usually done when a winery begins to make certified wines (in addition to growing certified grapes).
