Rivers Marie

Thomas Rivers Brown (2010 Food and Wine Magazine Winemaker of the Year) and his wife, Genevieve Marie, developed the Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon based winery, Rivers Marie on a whim. They were inspired once they were offered coveted Sonoma Coast, Summa Vineyard fruit by their friends, Scott and Joan Zellar. Rivers Marie has developed into one of the most cherished wines in all of California. There are only a few hundred bottles of each varietal produced each year and amassing them is nearly impossible since there are over 4,000 people on the waitlist. The wines are hand harvested and are never fined or filtered. This self-taught winemaker has made quite the name for himself having a hand in producing wines for over a dozen Napa wineries such as Schrader, Maybach, and Outpost.
