Making good wine is a skill; making fine wine is an art.

Once I was able to take care of myself and my children, I then wanted to share.

I know that wine is, above all else, a blessing, a gift of nature, a joy as pure and elemental as the soil and vines and sunshine from which it springs.

My brother and I had saved $15,000 by working many years nailing fruit crates together.

Wine always inspires sociability.

Wine has been with us since the beginning of civilization. It is the temperate, civilized, sacred, romantic mealtime beverage recommended in the Bible. Wine has been praised for centuries by statesmen, philosophers, poets, and scholars. Wine in moderation is an integral part of our culture, heritage and gracious way of life.
