Description

Stephanie DeMasi feels fortunate enough after 12 years a Napan, over 8 years a Vintner, to contribute to PNV with FlyWine, a DeMassive Brand. FlyWine is the by product of DeMasi's long expressed dream to produce Quality Wine in a single-serving. Each edition of FlyWine features a different winemaker who shares their story and mutually selects a charity to which DeMasi remits a portion of sales. FlyWine is all about Giving Back, and Premiere is simply an extension of this ideology. Bryan Page popped onto the scene in 1997. He and his brother Chris, make each wine Garagistes style out of their winery in Napa. Page and DeMasi are notoriously known around town as the "Hottest NonCouple Ever" and are proud "Siblings- From Another Mother"...the pair balances each others sensibilities, proclivities, and talents while somehow having more fun than most find humanly possible. We would love and HOPE that you will opt to have your wine bottled into 100mL Travelers. Be Well Travel Better.

Winemaker, Brian Page

The idea of creating Page Wine Cellars happened in the summer of 1996. The opportunity opened up for Bryan Page to tour many Chateaus throughout the Bordeaux region, falling in love with their incredible wines. After his culinary tour in Europe ended, he returned home to California. He simultaneously worked at several restaurants saving every penny, while apprenticing at a few Napa Valley wineries, with the goal and desire of making his own wines, under his own label.

In 1997 Page Wine Cellars officially began. The first vintage of Proprietary Red produced only 36 cases. His journey from culinary school student and server, to chef and Sommelier, then onto winemaker had begun.

Winemaking Philosophy:
The term Garagistes refers to a group of innovative winemakers in the Bordeaux region that produce Vins de Garage or garage wine
In this tradition, we produce our wines in our warehouse, concentrating on the wine and not the surroundings. For our wine this means an elegant mouth feel with edgy flavor profiles. This elegance with an edge style shines thru with the cult following of our Revolver Cabernet Franc The Fury and our Revolver The Stash, a limited Cabernet Sauvignon.
