We set out to create a drink without compromise

Drinks nowadays seem to always be lacking something. Too many use lab-made flavorings, and don't actually contain any of the fruit or spices they are supposed to taste like. We wanted to create a drink we were proud to share, something "honest", that uses all real fruit and spices, but doesn't sacrifice taste. The final product is delicious, with a flavor profile like a cocktail, but so easy to make - just pour and sip.

Drinks never match the flavors they describe, so we developed better ones.

We fell in love with old-world European aperitivo culture, and the drinks that fueled it. But we wanted to tweak them for a modern drinker. We bring in whole fruit and spices from farms and suppliers all over California to our winery in San Francisco. Then, we infuse that into California-made white wine, resulting in a drink bursting with flavor. Our drinks are crafted to be good enough to sip on their own, but are versatile enough to play well in cocktails too.

A more intentional drinking culture

I wasn’t satisfied with what I was drinking and the culture that surrounded it: one of excess, but lacking in taste, meaning, and a connection to the ingredients. I wanted something that tasted great. But I also wanted it to feel good too - made with a process I could be proud of, with ingredients straight from farms.

Along the way, some great memories were made, and I realized that it wasn’t just about creating something better in the bottle. It was about enhancing the entire experience, inspiring a more intentional drinking culture. One that is built around people, places, and memories.
