Founder Matt Smith interned in the lab at Beaulieu Vineyards during his university years.
Matt's passion for winemaking blossomed from spending time with winemakers, and after graduating he furthered his training at Dash Cellars and JC Cellars, which shared a winery with Dash at the time.
Matt had received offers from several other wineries, but he was attracted to their thorough focus on quality winemaking and chose to continue working there.
In 2013 he started his own winery in Alameda where he creates several unique handcrafted wines.
During local product research for Hotei Wines in 2017, they discovered his wines, which offered excellent value for money in Napa Valley, where prices continued to rise, and decided to release them.
