2017 Momtazi Bachinsky Pinot Noir

Growing up in a Persian family, wine wasn’t just something to drink; it was woven into the fabric of our lives. From a young age, I learned that not every bottle tells a story. My father, a skilled entrepreneur, wanted to carry on the legacy of our ancestors, blending tradition and innovation in every bottle. Wine was intertwined with our family gatherings, celebrations, and even moments of quiet reflection. It was the essence of who we were.

Then, when I least expected it, Alex walked into my life.

Alex came from a Ukrainian family, where wine wasn’t part of his culture but Alex always had an innate fascination with wine. His curiosity about how it was made, the connection between the land and the bottle, and the art of farming intrigued him. So when my father approached Alex and I about an opportunity to start our own wine under the family label, he didn’t hesitate to take on a new passion project while continuing his work with his family’s business. We knew this was our chance to blend both of our worlds and Alex’s enthusiasm for wine with our own growing family.

Under the guidance of my father and sister, who has been making wine for years in Oregon, we began our journey. For us, this project is more than just wine, it’s a way for people to connect not only with us but others around a table. We want to share our story through every bottle, showing how our two similar yet distinctly different cultures come together. With my Persian roots and Alex’s Ukrainian upbringing, we can all come together in harmony. Food, wine, and family have always been at the heart of our lives, and now we’re offering a way for others to experience that too.

Our wine label represents our journey: a blend of old-world traditions and new-world innovation, shaped by the earth, guided by family, and rooted in love. Through each bottle, we hope to invite others into our world, where the richness of history meets the excitement of the future. This is just the beginning, and we can’t wait to share it with you.
