Since our grassroots beginnings in 2017, winemaker and owner Mike Shindler’s guiding principles have been to support local and organic grape growers in BC to make small-batch & experimental naturally fermented wines. Mike’s wife and partner in problem-solving, Sam Milbrath, runs the marketing side of things (she’s a writer and photographer) and helps out in the vineyard, farm, and cellar.
We’re also Leos. We were both born in August and love summer. We aim to capture that light, bright, fresh, and vibey summer feeling in every bottle. Many of our wines nailed it. But, we also love serious, elegant, and pretty wines that showcase Mike’s talents as a winemaker and help elevate natural wine in BC and beyond.
We go to great lengths to support local organic BC growers, farmworkers, farm-to-table and owner-operated restaurants, boutique wine shops, small business owners and makers, artists and designers, and importers who share their values and integrity.
Thank you to our very supportive community! We love you!
