We produce extremely small quantities of balanced and age-worthy wines. Now in our tenth year, we will continue to remain loyal to each and every restaurant and retailer nationwide that have helped us to create the overwhelming success and demand for our wines but we will also look forward to continuing to be able to offer our wines directly to our customers.

As always we will continue to distribute our wines based on first come first severed and previous support. We do not place limits on whom and how much a supporter can purchase.

Chapter is our vineyard-designated proprietary Bordeaux blend from Mount Veeder, Napa Valley. We choose the vineyards carefully for their integrity, and its ability to impart distinctive and balanced fruit - consistently every year - for our flagship wine.

For each passing vintage a Chapter is written and the story unfolds as a traditional tale told from a new and compelling perspective. It is a moveable feast intended to endure.

This is the first year we've submitted our wines for critical review. As they continue to garner acclaim, our production will stay the same which means that our wines will continue to become harder to find. So we guarantee that those who purchase and support Ramian now will always be able to purchase at least a minimum quantity of our wines in the future. That's why loyalty counts.

Growing up just North of Dallas, Texas, Brian dreamed of being an architect. He also started enjoying and learning about wines at an early age with his parents. While in college wine became more important and he decided to change directions and focus on wine exclusively.

Experiencing the retail, restaurant and wholesale aspects of selling and presenting wines, Brian decided to take the next step and focus on learning how to make wine. Realizing that the wines of France and Italy were some of his favorite wines, he sold everything that did not fit into two suitcases, drove his truck to the bank and purchased a one way ticket to France, ending up in Bordeaux.

Formally educated about eonology and wine-making at the University of Bordeaux, Brian also worked and was mentored at Chateau Roquefort, among others.

He went on to further his studies at the Wine and Spirits Educational Trust in London, after which time he worked for a boutique winery in Burgundy named Domaine Serrigny - Jean-Pierre & Fils in Savigny-Les-Beaune.

These experiences gave him the foundation for creating balanced, terroir-driven wines.

Now the winemaker for his own label, Ramian, as well as four other projects, he focuses on balance and terroir rather than overblown presentations. The wines are meant to be original, complex, balanced and age-worthy.
