The name Cava in Italian means cave or mine. With Hamburg and the surrounding towns known for their history in mining, the name seemed an appropriate tribute to the blistered hands that achieved the area’s reputation.

    We find kinship with the miners through hard work and, with a little luck, we hope to yield something precious from the earth. In our process of winemaking, we hope to achieve outright alchemy.
