Music & Wine

Our story began, as many great stories do, with music and wine. It was a serendipitous interview.  First, a farmer with some of Napa Valley’s best grapes.  Next, a seemingly impossible puzzle that brought us together.  So, weeks after meeting we shook hands backstage at the Greek Theater in Berkeley, CA and took on the deal that would lead us into a life-long friendship, the founding of a winery, and a plan to conquer the world. Well… the wine world.
