Where did the name Relentless come from?
We wanted to honor Elias Fernandez, our winemaker of more than 20 years, and his relentless pursuit of quality in winemaking. No detail is too small. On bottling days he personally steam cleans every fitting and every hose that comes in contact with the wine. He inspects every oak barrel and mandates ultra high-quality from all our suppliers. To maintain quality in our corks he worked meticulously with our supplier to re-invent every step a cork makes from the cork forests of Portugal to their arrival on our doorstep. Our suppliers describe Elias as “disciplined,” “focused,” “extraordinarily organized,” “pain in the neck” and “very demanding.” In other words, relentless. This wine is liquid testimonial to the skill and style of Winemaker Elias Fernandez.
