About The Winemaker
"Wine makes every meal an occasion, every table more elegant, every day more civilized." ~ Andre Simone
Life is about what you enjoy and the journey you travel! My passion is about making something that everyone enjoys for all of life's journeys!
In 2007, I had a life changing experience, when I finally left the "desk" and corporate life, to experience my journey to its fullest. With many experiences and inspirations that I have gained from traveling around the world, I followed my heart and returned to school. This time, it was in Viticulture and Enology. After acquiring an Associates of Applied Science from Southern Oregon Wine Institute, I had the opportunity to work in both the vineyard and the winery. With that experience, I developed the desire to make exceptional wine that everyone would enjoy.
Having worked in both the vineyard and the winery, I do try to walk the rows regularly, but my heart has landed in the winery. Crafting wine has become a passion of mine. From the beginning, when the grapes are selected to the final process of bottling. Wine making is fun and exciting! Its hard work with a reward! My goals are to make boutique quantities of select varieties with exceptional quality. Taste the experience yourself! Cheers!

Tasting Wine
Tasting wine is all about the experience. Whether it is technical and formal or for pleasure and recreation. Take your time. Savor the layers of elements that have developed in each sip. Identify with something special in the wine ~ a fruit flavor, an acid component, a metallic sensation. Whatever it may be for you and that wine. But most of all, remember this when tasting wine... Enjoy the moment! Laugh out loud! Appreciate it! Spend time with friends! Eat good food!
MAKE IT MEMORABLE!!!

Dark, rich and full of vibrancy describes this first vintage Syrah that was aged on French Oak. This full bodied wine is deliciously highlighting black fruits and savory spices.

Silver Medal, 2017 SanFrancisco Chronicle Wine Competition!
Outstanding! Rating from Great Northwest Wine!
The aroma of vanilla and sugar cookies leads to a gentle Chardonnay with refreshing white peach flavors. This Chardonnay has a French Oak exposure for only 9 months. Smooth and delicate, this wine is a creamy but lighter Chardonnay that loves to be just slightly chilled. Serve this wine with stuffed Portobello mushrooms, Manchego cheese, Pasta Carbonara or just with a good book! Dry.
2013
SOLD OUT!
Elegantly golden in the glass, this vintage softly presents the oak aged grape. With a clean taste, this apricot and creamy, yet crisp and acidic white wine is impressive. This wine is a winner! Dry. Aged on French oak. 12.5%
2012
SOLD OUT!
Straw colored hues that radiate in the glass, show off this first vintage 2012 Chardonnay. Made from grapes grown at 2400 feet, this medium bodied, dry white wine has inviting aromas of apricot and pineapple. Its creamy texture compliments the fresh fruit and leads to a balanced finish that has just a kiss of kiwi. Enjoy this wine with white fish, corn fritters, picnics and friends! Dry. 12.5%
