Charles Wine Company is family-owned and managed with a portfolio of premium wines representing the rich diversity of the Western States: California (Northern, Central and Southern), Washington and Oregon appellations. Our dream started in 2007 with a trip to Temecula Valley Wine Country for wine tasting, which lead me to the cellar with the winemaker/owner doing a barrel tasting.  This introduction sparked my interest to purchase my first premium wine kit, which began our journey.  After a successful bottle, I decided to convert my backyard to a vineyard, growing Cabernet and Zinfandel. The grapes were crushed by hand to produce our first bottle of wine.
