Born and raised in California’s Central Valley, Andrea Beltran’s love of winemaking was inspired by a bountiful harvest. After graduating from Cal Poly, Andrea made her way back to the Central Valley and began working at a local winery. Her motto, “learn by doing,” inspired her to advance her knowledge of winemaking, taking on mentors and pulling inspiration from all styles. Today, with 12 years of experience, Andrea’s personal style is focused on creating fruit-forward wines that show off the grapes natural acidity, aromas, and flavors – a distinct style found in every beautiful bottle of AVA Grace.
Our grapes are primarily sourced in California and other lush, vibrant vineyards around the world that set the stage for beautifully made wines. Abundant sunshine allows for a long grape growing season, while the diverse terroir help to create flavor variations throughout each varietal. AVA Grace® wines are inspired by the loveliness of these viticultural masterpieces and their unique qualities. The many possible blends of soil, climate, and winemaking styles are what give our wines their true legacy and grace.
