It is with deep and profound sadness that we announce the passing of our longtime w**emaker and friend, Enrico Bertoz, following a courageous battle with cancer.
Enrico joined Flora Springs in 2008, bringing with him not only immense talent but a deep respect for the land and an unwavering commitment to excellence. Over the years, he became the heart of our w**emaking team, helping to shape the identity of Flora Springs. Through his artistry, intuition, and steady leadership, his influences from a childhood spent in the Friuli w**e region of northern Italy have shaped our w**es throughout the years.
His thoughtful approach to w**emaking, his humility, his vivid personality, and his generous spirit made him not only a trusted colleague, but a dear friend to all of us. Enrico believed in the quiet magic of the vineyard, the rhythm of the seasons, and the idea that w**e could tell a story greater than ourselves. He came from an Old-World perspective, where the grower and the w**emaker are one entity and this showed in every vintage, every barrel, and every bottle.
We are forever grateful for his dedication and legacy, and we will continue to honor his memory through the w**es he so lovingly crafted through the leadership of Gina Gallo and Jean Charles Boisset.
Our thoughts are with Enrico’s family and loved ones during this difficult time.
With heartfelt gratitude,
The Flora Springs Family
