About Us
Stephen’s wine journey
began to accelerate while serving at a stylish Venetian restaurant in LA’s South Bay. Here, he began to learn the vast range of Italian wines and regions. Subsequently, he became thirsty for wine knowledge and set out to learn more.
His educational background in Cultural Anthropology and fascination with geography lent themselves well to his study of wine which ultimately led him to earn the WSET level 3 Award in Wines. After returning to San Diego, he entered into the luxury hotel atmosphere where he shared his joy for both wine and customer service. He eventually became the sommelier and wine educator at a Forbes Five Star Resort in Carlsbad where he curates the wine lists for the restaurants within the hotel. More than anything, he loves pouring wine for people and talking about the fascinating stories that go into the making of each bottle.
Jordan
has her Ph.D. in Molecular Biology and has extensive experience in customer service and developing an excellent customer experience. She has absorbed a lot of wine knowledge through the years and is excited to share that knowledge.
As a couple, we enjoy hosting dinner parties where Stephen is the resident wine expert. Without prompting, he has been known to fall into a wine tasting, teaching everyone at the dinner table something new and fascinating. After many requests to turn his passion into a business, we have finally taken the leap! We are excited to serve you and make your next soiree sensational.
