Join us as we raise a glass to the stories, memories, and legacy behind our newest wine, Postcards from Papa. In 2017, after the passing of my papa, Barney, I inherited a treasure trove of his postcards. These were not just ordinary postcards; they were windows into his life's journey. Among them were correspondences from the frontlines of WWII, heartfelt notes to his family, and even letters exchanged with the Roosevelts. Each postcard was a piece of his soul, a testament to his adventures, struggles, and triumphs.

As I delved into these postcards, I felt my papa's spirit alive in every word penned on them. They became a bridge to his past, allowing me to relive his remarkable life and keep his legacy burning bright.

To share this incredible journey with others and honor my papa's memory, I created "Postcards from Papa," a series of limited edition wines. Each bottle is a tribute to the man who influenced me deeply and whose stories continue to inspire.

Series #001: 2020 Whiskey-Barrel Aged Merlot
A bold, structured red aged in American whiskey barrels for deep notes of vanilla, toasted oak, and spice.

Series #002: 2020 Maple Bourbon-Barrel Aged Merlot
Rich and warming, this Merlot is aged in maple bourbon barrels, layering hints of caramel, maple, and smoke over dark cherry fruit.

Spend the afternoon in the vineyard to celebrate Barney with a menu of Barney’s favorite bites by Orchard Street Kitchen, live bagpipe music followed by more music, and the very first pours of Postcards from Papa. Sip, savor, and share in the warmth of a wine crafted with care and steeped in history. Bring friends, raise a glass, and help us honor a legacy that continues to inspire.
