Beaux Frères
Michael G. Etzel, Founder
Beaux Frères produces world-class Pinot Noir from small, well-balanced yields and ripe, healthy fruit that represents the essence of their vineyard in Willamette Valley.
The Beaux Frères story began in 1986 when Michael G. Etzel embarked on a road trip to Oregon with his young family after reading an enticing review of an ‘83 Pinot Noir from the Willamette Valley. They came upon a foreclosed 88-acre pig farm and with an investment from Michael’s sister Pat and her husband, wine critic Robert Parker Jr., the dream began to take shape. The winery was named Beaux Frères in reference to the French idiom for “brother in law.”
Ca’ del Bosco
Jacob Gragg, Portfolio Fine Wine Specialist
Ca’ del Bosco, founded in 1969, is one of the world’s foremost producers of Franciacorta, Italy’s most revered sparkling wine from the Lombardy region. Ca’ del Bosco is located in the province of Brescia in northern Italy.
Jacob Gragg joined the group at Ca’ del Bosco in 2019 as Portfolio Fine Wine Specialist, and he’s been sharing his love for Franciacorta ever since.
