A toast to Festive Occasions

I haven’t told many people this, but our sparkling wines were produced for the future weddings in my family. A couple of years ago, as my cousins, siblings, and I began to enter the stage of life where serious, meaningful relationships were taking shape, I realized it was time to plan ahead. It takes up to a year and a half to finish a sparkling wine project and if I wanted to make sure I had the perfect wine ready to celebrate those future moments, I needed to plan ahead. Around that time, I also had requests from wine club members to have our wines at their weddings. So, I made it a point to begin crafting wines that would not only mark milestones in our family's future but also stand as a symbol of joy and celebration for others.

It isn’t our style to just have one sparkling wine, especially when it is more fun and challenging to create three. I also figured that it never hurts to have options.

Most of our wines are produced and named after the Löw family members and are produced in tribute to our family history. In many ways, most of our wines honor the past, our traditions, and the stories that have shaped who we are today. But as much as we value tradition, it was important to us to have a line of wines that were fun and celebrated the future. 

I was thrilled when my sister Sophie’s boyfriend, Nate, shared with me that he was secretly planning to propose on Thanksgiving. I couldn't wait to raise a glass of our wine to celebrate their future. Right after we gathered for a family photo outside my Aunt and Uncle’s home in Annapolis, Nate got down on one knee and asked Sophie to marry him. The whole family cheered “Mazal Tov,” and danced around them. At dinner, we toasted to their happiness and to the exciting journey ahead of them. It was in those moments that I was reminded of how special my family’s winery is. We produce wines that are enjoyed during the most meaningful times in life—in turn being part of a cherished memory to look back on.

 As we approach the New Year, it’s the perfect opportunity to share a bottle of sparkling wine with those who mean the most to you. Whether you’re celebrating a new chapter or milestone in your personal life, marking the end of a year, or enjoying being with the ones you love, our sparkling wines are meant to elevate any moment. 

I would like to wish my sister, Sophie and her fiancé Nate a huge Mazal Tov on their engagement, and a lifetime of simchas and moments to celebrate.
