While we like to hear from consumers, (both opinions and questions) we avoid retail (not enough time) and even avoid wholesale sales (direct to stores), as we are bad at collections. Instead, we sell our wines to distributors in 43 states as of last count and if yours is not one of them then a little pull from your end, a little push from our end and we can get you the most organic and varietally correct wines available in the world.
