What Vindulge Is All About
Great Wine & Food with Loved Ones
We are all about helping you create great wine and food experiences with your family and friends. Think about us as your favorite next door neighbors who happen to know a lot about wine… and cooking… and pairing the two together. We’re the ones you come to for all your recommendations.
Sustainable, Small & Family-Owned Wine
We have traveled the world to discover incredible wines with a focus on sustainability, small and family owned producers with great stories, and exceptional quality. You’re not going to find most of these wines on your supermarket shelves.
Wine is a Story
We know wine is a story that starts in the land, years in the making. It’s farming. And working to bring that wine to the glass is a diverse group of people that have to make decisions daily to express the sense of place and quality every year.
Ever Curious
We are ever curious. The wine industry is always changing. We don’t pretend to know everything, but instead are always learning along the way, and sharing that with you. We ask questions of the producers we work with, so that we can tell you the full stories of vintages, of hardships and successes, and of experimentation and quality. And we bring that knowledge to you.
Representation Matters
We believe the fruits of labor that went from vineyard to the glass should be celebrated by everyone. Representation matters, from the fields to the cellar, from the owners to the consumers, and we seek out wineries that express these values.
Wine is Meant to be Paired with Food
We believe that wine is meant to be shared, over a great meal. And we have created over 500 recipes to pair with our favorite wines. Don’t think that wine can be paired with BBQ? Think again. We’re here to help!

Beyond the Glass
Wine reflects not only where it comes from, but the people who make it. It's about farming in the field, and making decisions throughout the year to put the best wine possible in your glass. Explore the wines and the journey from field to glass.
