The Lightfoot & Wolfville Terroir Series celebrates small lot, single-varietal wines
with a distinct sense of place. The label imagery reflects this theme and helps to tell the story of the unique vineyard sites featured. On the Terroir Series Chardonnay label, the butterflies, milkweed, baby bird, spiders and cow horn represent our biodynamic farming practices, and our commitment to promote biodiversity within our farm
ecosystem. The eye represents the human element of our farm individuality, and our intention to work in harmony with the natural world around us.
