CHRIS SPARKMAN, Dad, Director of Winemaking and Head Janitor, spent a couple of decades as sommelier and wine buyer in some of the U.S.'s best restaurants: from Commander’s Palace in New Orleans, Michael’s in LA, Todd English’s Olives in DC and Mackay Restaurants in Seattle. He currently serves as Chairman of the Washington State Wine Commission. His Personal Management Team is headed by Stella Mae and Ruby Leigh.

 


 

Inspired by the birth of our first daughter Stella Mae (and later, her sister Ruby Leigh), we decided to have a life focused on family.

Our style produces artisan handcrafted award winning wines, some of them highly sought after. Contributing to our community and to causes that resonate with our family are another way that the wine world helps make our lives rich.
