Our producers

Twenty-one people who make what they pour.

Not brands. Not tasting rooms with someone else’s wine on the shelf. Every one of them has been visited, and every one of them still works the floor.

Producer of the month · August

Elena Ruiz

Estate Tempranillo and Mourvèdre grown on shallow limestone, fermented in concrete.

    Margit Keller

    Stonecourt Estate · Millbrook, NY · since 1998

Every one of these counts producers who answered the question themselves, in their own editor — not producers we think qualify. Some decline, and a producer who declines is counted on neither side. We never guess who founded a business from a name.

The whole list

Every producer, by region

Short enough to print in full. That’s the point.

Every producer we hold a record for is named above. The atlas counts 17 open regions across the whole roster we are building toward; the names here are the ones you can book today.

Make something and pour it yourself?

We approve about one in three who apply, and we visit before we decide.
