Celebrating 10 Years 2010-2020

This year we celebrate 10 years of wine, food, and spirits experiences in Maine, and small-group trips to wine regions around the world. When we first began this journey … in a recession, as a side hustle, with a few events a month … we had no idea how rewarding the work, the growth, and the industry relationships would be. It has been an honor and a labor of love to form long-lasting and genuine friendships with our employees, customers, and business partners over the past decade. We also feel very honored to be part of an incredible community and industry that supports one another, looks out for each other, and inspires us all to do our absolute best. Thank you for being a part of this journey and allowing us to be part of yours. You have truly enriched our lives.

Cheers to a delicious and bright future together as we plan for an even more incredible 10 years ahead with more experiences centered around great wine, food, and travel. Here's a look at what we'll share with you in 2020 and beyond.10 year anniversary events to be announced.
