About Chosen Family Wines
Chosen Family Wines began as a way for Channing Frye and Kevin Love to enjoy what they love most about the Willamette Valley and share it with the people who mean the most. As best friends and NBA Champions, the duo also became business partners and founded their wine label in 2018.
With the help of Chase Renton, owner and winemaker at L’Angolo Estate, Chosen Family released it’s first vintage in 2020.
Chosen Family Wines began with a single Pinot Noir. Today, our portfolio has grown to include Rose, Chardonnay, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Sparkling Wine.
We partner with some of the best young winemakers in the world to share wines that tell the story of their renowned terroir while providing unparalleled quality and value. Each bottle of wine that we produce is a result of the synergy between terroir, technique, and unique barrel selection, reflecting the unity of our chosen family of partners and friends.
We’ve saved you a seat at our table and invite you to be a part of our Chosen Family!

“This is a passion project. I get excited talking about this every day. In my office at home, I have my championship ring and then right next to it are my first Chardonnay and Pinot Noir bottles. Theses are the three things that, outside of my family, I’m the most proud of”

“I think we all collectively aim to make wine more approachable. This isn’t a short-term project. I look forward to spending more time in the Willamette Valley and traveling to wine regions across the globe – learning, drinking, and participating in research and development.”
