Family owned and operated, winemaking runs deep in our veins. Our founder, Alex Golitzin – American spelling – is a descendent of Prince Lev Sergeevich Galitzine, the acclaimed winemaker to Russian Czar Nicholas II's Abrau Dursau estate, as well as the Massandra and Novy Svet sparkling wine estates. Prince Lev Galitzine is the most famous figure among all those who were involved in the development of Russian winemaking and was dubbed "the creator of Russian champagne".
