About Me
Bryan Pritchard,
Bryan Pritchard,
Proprietor
Bryan Pritchard grew up in a small town in Northern Michigan called Traverse City. As a youth he learned to enjoy a few of the finer Michigan beverages; Orange Faygo, Natural Lite and of course the eventual game changer, Boones Farm (blue Hawaiian). While attending Central Michigan University, Bryan was voted to be President of his fraternity all the while shortly after having the pleasure of being kicked out. Boone’s Farm. He graduated college in 2007 with a BA in History and set off to snowboard in Vail, Colorado and Park City Utah. In 2014 after a successful career of being a Ski town Sommelier he moved to Saint Helena California, started a family and grew his hair out to look like Jon Snow.
About Me

Chad Carpenter,
Proprietor
Jesus was a Carpenter... Chad Carpenter grew up with an early love for Baseball, some how the Tigers and the Indians are both his favorite teams. Chad’s extremely influential grandparents instilled in him the importance of family, this family bonding helped Chad grow fond of the service industry. While pursuing a degree in Hospitality Management at Central Michigan University, Chad found the fraternity, Sigma Chi. Shortly after and with a much lower GPA he was asked to take a semester off so he followed Pritchard to Vail, Colorado in 2008. 100 powder days later, he returned to Michigan and worked as a college DJ in East Lansing. Go Green! Quickly he found himself bartending and serving and in 2017 he moved back to the mountains of Colorado building his dream Jeep along the way. 2020 brought new challenges so he decided to chase new dreams building this wine label complete with a move to Saint Helena, California to learn how to make wine. It’s going to be a Glorious Day!!!
