These tasty little wines were introduced nationally in 2008 from California’s Central Coast and represented a finely crafted, fruit-forward, indulgent and eminently approachable style of wine. The inaugural release included Chardonnay, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Since then, Adam has used his experience and relationships around the world to add seven international wines to the lineup. http://underdogwinemerchants.com/

After 30 years in the Fashion industry in New York City, Denise and Scott Schramm followed their hearts and daughters to California. Denise and Scott are longtime wine enthusiasts and have always dreamed of owning a vineyard. Traveling to Napa Valley since the early 90’s indulging their thirst for Cabernet Sauvignon this couple fell in love with California wines and the beauty of wine country. The Schramm's are also fortunate to have traveled to Europe and developed a fondness for the Italian Super Tuscans, Spanish Riojas, and France’s wines from the Bordeaux and Rhone regions. Nothing made them happier than gathering with friends and family sharing stories, good food, and great wine.
The dream became reality when this couple purchased an established vineyard on the West Side of Paso Robles in the Adelaida District. The vineyard was known for growing award-winning Tannat and Tempranillo, two varietals that follow their “Road Less Traveled” philosophy in winemaking. At CRUSH Vineyard, the focus is on small-batch, hand-crafted red wines which are Estate grown on our family vineyard. Always sustainably farmed and handpicked.
The very first bottling, to commemorate the wedding of our oldest daughter Phoebe was a special blend of Tannat and GSM. This blend was named INCEPTION to mark the start of the new couple's life together, and the beginning of Denise and Scott's winemaking adventure.
