Every Vintage Collection Starts Somewhere

The idea arrived in the middle of an ordinary day, a simple message that turned into an unexpected opportunity and the momentum to keep the vision moving forward. An invitation to make wine.

At first, there was hesitation. The timing didn’t feel right, and FlorLee wasn’t ready for wines just yet. It seemed too soon, too uncertain, too nerve-wracking. But the truth is, the process doesn’t always wait for perfect timing. Sometimes it begins the moment you decide to say yes.

Once we began, the lesson revealed itself. Winemaking taught me that intention isn’t just about planning, it’s about awareness—knowing when to move, when to pause, and when to trust that time will do its work. The process was slow, deliberate, and full of quiet clarity.

That first batch wasn’t made to sell. It was made to understand the craft, to appreciate the rhythm of creating something meaningful from start to finish. Shared with loved ones, it became a reminder that craftsmanship, like growth, requires presence.

FlorLee was never meant to rush. This brand was built to honor process, to slow down, to listen, and to pour with purpose. The wines born from that experience represent more than a bottle. They mark the beginning of the next movement in the FlorLee legacy.

At the center of it all remains the table, where stories, people, and pours come together. Every seat is an invitation to learn, to taste, and to experience what patience and purpose can create.

This is the first pour, a reflection of what’s to come and a quiet promise to stay intentional through every stage that follows.
