Experience
Co-Founder, Director at Steely Can Wine
Fall 2021 – Current
Ideator. Booze architect. It all started with some post-gig riffing, naming wines after songs we had played that night. As ideas for the wines began to flow, we realized (as is often said about great wines) our canned wine plan had legs. Now, from the band that specializes in vintage California smoothness, we bring you a selection of smooth California vintages.
