What started as a passion in 2014 has evolved and grown year on year.
Vintage California is the result of a fascination with a place that has transcended and united different phases of my life. It exists to showcase the finest and most collectible expressions of Californian Wine to passionate and discerning Oenophiles across the Globe. I adore California and its World Class wines. I do hope you will share in this interest with me and come on a journey of vinous discovery through California.
