RED bubbles?! Why the blasphemy?

Because rules are just guidelines anyway.

We’re life-long friends!

Technically, this has nothing to do with the wine. But where’s your sense of wonder? Miles and Amelia have been buddies since they were 4 years old and are products of the PG County Public Schools System.

We’re Convinced

Making money would be cool, probably. But that's not the point. We'll break even if we're lucky, but what we REALLY want is for the world to stop disrespecting red bubbles. We think Marylanders can do it. We think you'll buck tradition and embrace a new (old) wine style. 

Made in Maryland

With red grapes sourced in Lodi, CA and white from Centreville, VA through super-secret friendships, this wine is inspired by the great sparkling reds of Italy. Fermented and blended and conditioned at The Crossvines in Poolesville, Maryland, under the technical direction of winemaker John. 

Experience Winemaking

John has been making wines in some of the world's most reputable hotspots for decades. Amelia has 10+ years in the craft beer industry and a bachelor's in viticulture and enology from Bordeaux. They both know the craft and how to troubleshoot. 

The main reason for this project has been to re-right a wrong in the market. We want more red bubbles. This is a wine we really want to drink. Seriously, we tried it and it's good.
