In wine and life, it’s all about family
“Our aim has always been to work with exceptional families and committed individuals,” says Dennis Kreps, co-owner. “When you partner with passionate people who create outstanding products, you build relationships that endure through both good times and challenges. Families care about the future, and that shared commitment creates a powerful synergy. We become a part of their family, and they become a part of ours.”

We partner with family-owned wineries that go beyond winemaking—they’re dedicated to sustainability, responsible land stewardship, and preserving resources for future generations. From organic and biodynamic farming to innovative eco-friendly practices, these wineries are crafting exceptional wines while protecting the planet.
