At VanArnam Vineyards, we’ve always said our wines are made, served, and enjoyed by family. This National Teachers Day, we’re raising a glass to the educators within our own.

Because great hospitality, like great teaching, is about connection, care, and creating moments people carry with them long after they leave.

Lisa was the kind of unexpected blessing you don’t see coming. She walked into our tasting room in the spring of 2025, and within minutes, it felt like she had always been part of this place. Since then, she's taught us so much about warmth, intuition, and how the smallest gestures can shape a guest’s entire experience. Her kindness, laughter, and genuine care is felt in every weekend, every event, and every pour.

Trent has been with us for years, and if you’ve met him, you already know that he’s a natural teacher. Whether he’s sharing the story behind a vintage, guiding a tasting, or welcoming someone in for the first time, he brings an energy that’s both approachable and deeply knowledgeable. He has a way of making everyone feel included, understood, and excited to learn.

To our entire team, our wine club members, and the educators everywhere who inspire curiosity, connection, and joy, we thank you.
Lisa and Trent are a huge reason people feel at home here, the reason our wines shine, and the reason this place continues to grow.

Here’s to those who teach, in classrooms and beyond!

The last few days been nothing short of a beautiful reminder of what this season is all about.

From bottling our Reserve wines and carefully racking recent vintages into barrel, to dreaming up new ways to place exceptional wines into the hands of those who enjoy them most. Branden has been hard at work behind the scenes, ensuring every detail reflects the passion poured into this vineyard.

It’s long days, stained hands, swirling glasses, and yes… even the first farmer’s tan of the year.

This work is equal parts labor and love, and we’re endlessly grateful for the opportunity to craft wines that become part of your tables, celebrations, and memories.

Thank you for being here, for supporting this journey, and for allowing us to continue doing what we love most.

The vineyard is busy, the cellar is alive, and the best is still to come.
