Daisy empowers women recovering from divorce or separation, guiding them to overcome Financial and Judicial abuse and start businesses. They both are avid supporters of youth soccer in Gainesville through events and offering scholarships. They also host “Pets on the Patio” and support the local Humane Society.

We celebrate all things local—local businesses, local art, and local heart. We showcase rotating artists, host community fundraisers, and partner with small businesses and nonprofits to create a space where connection flows just as much as the wine. Join us for educational tastings, pop-up events, and evenings that give back—because every glass should tell a story worth sharing.

Discover the Roots of Wine — Georgia, the Birthplace of Winemaking
Long before France or Italy, there was Georgia — where winemaking began over 8,000 years ago. Nestled between Europe and Asia, this ancient country is home to the qvevri tradition, where wine is fermented underground in clay vessels. With over 500 native grape varieties and a deep cultural reverence for the vine, Georgia's wines are rich in history, soul, and story — a beautiful reminder that every glass has a past.
