At Chosen Family Wines, our journey began with two teammates who forged an unbreakable bond during their epic 2016 NBA Championship run.

That shared experience ignited a friendship and a passion for wine that they just had to share with the world! Now, we’re thrilled to bring that same joy and camaraderie to you, one delicious sip at a time.

We believe that wine is more than just a drink – it’s an experience. Whether you’re celebrating life’s milestones, sharing laughter with loved ones, or simply enjoying a quiet moment of reflection, a glass of wine can elevate it to something truly special..

We pour our hearts into every bottle, crafting wines that reflect the unique beauty and character of the Willamette Valley.

Each sip is a testament to our dedication to quality and our love for the art of winemaking.
