About us

From 'just one glass' to a whole business...

Between the two of us, we’ve been swirling, sipping, and spilling wine wisdom for 37 years. One of us turns grapes into viral gold; the other’s a sommelier who can pair wine with anything—yes, even hotdogs.

We started this because wine felt stuck: either too stuffy or snoozy. So we’re bringing you the fun stuff—unexpected bottles, under-the-radar producers, rebellious grape varieties, and labels that look as good as they taste.

Think of this as your wine playground. It’ll grow with what you ask for, crave, or accidentally DM us after two glasses.

Can’t pronounce the grape? Need a great value crowd-pleaser? Just want to talk tannins? We’ve got you. We love wine.

And yes—we always finish the bottle!.

Jason a.k.a.The Grape Wizard

I’ve spent 15 years in wine retail, and the best part? Helping people find their wine. Wine’s got something for everyone, and I love making that match happen.

A few years ago, I started sharing my wine finds on Instagram. Fast forward, and now I’m talking wine with 80,000+ followers across social media, all here for the same reason: a shared love of the grape, the growers and stories behind each bottle.

Greatest wine moment? Maybe sipping amphora-aged Solarus grown on a Welsh hillside. Maybe that epic Cabernet Franc in a Paso Robles vineyard. Or the afternoon spent with Bastien, farmer-turned-winemaker working his 3 hectares in Provence into a bio-dynamique wine haven. Ask me over a glass, and I’ll probably change my answer.

Wayne the Sommelier

With almost 20 years in the wine world, I’m now Director of Wine for a restaurant group in the Northwest. I’ve built my career on thinking outside the bottle—pairing the unexpected and championing wines that surprise and delight.

West Coast wines? That’s my sweet spot. Big personality, bold flavour, zero pretense.

My all-time greatest wine experience? Let’s just say it involved a sunset, a coastline, and a bottle that ruined me (in the best way).
