Elena Hanson
Owner, Founder I studied Community and Commercial Recreation and Event Management at CSU Chico, which is where I found my passion for creating memorable experiences for others. I started this company with the idea to create adventures and experiences for people who have a passion for wine and fun. I am passionate about discovery and finding new places, which is why I chose to open this business in Amador County, which I believe is one of California's best kept secrets. Favorite Wine: Barbera Favorite Amador Winery: Helwig Winery |
