Wine is for everyone.
Yet too often, it’s wrapped in intimidation and exclusivity. Our mission is to change that—to introduce people to great wine, to break the myth that quality has to come at the highest price, and to create connection through the simple joy of a shared bottle.
Quality
Quality wine should be crafted with minimal intervention, allowing its natural character and terroir to shine. Most grocery store labels are corporate offerings chemically engineered to cater to taste preferences.
Connection
No matter where you are or who you're with, a great bottle of wine has the power to bring people together.
Value
Great wine isn’t always the most expensive. Value exists at every price point—from everyday bottles to age-worthy classics. A $100 grower Champagne may outshine a prestigious $300 bottle, just as a $25 Rioja can rival a $100 Napa cabernet. We seek wines that deliver quality and value, whatever your budget.
Small Business
We choose to support small businesses and family vintners—those who’ve poured generations of care into every bottle—rather than large corporations.

Bottles from South Africa, Austria, France, Italy, Spain, and Oregon—all incredibly delicious and ones I never would have chosen on my own. The event was a great success with many coming as strangers and leaving as friends!"
