In 2005 I returned to the US after spending two vintages in Italy and one in Germany. It was bitter cold that December, but, I had an idea burning inside me. I wanted to create a winery that used our climate as a blessing and not a curse. Some 7 years later, I think we are getting there.

After years of fumbling through, trying to figure out not only what we were doing, but what we wanted to do, we came up with our mission.
