Founded in 1999 by Ed Lehrman and Nick Ramkowsky, Vine Connections pioneered the first nationally imported portfolio of artisan wines from Argentina and soon after introduced the US to a premium selection of Japanese ginjo sake. The company now represents the largest portfolio of boutique Argentine and Chilean wineries in the United States with over 100 wines and 23 brands produced by some of South America’s most highly regarded winemakers and viticulturists. Vine Connections also represents 16 of Japan’s finest ginjo sake breweries that produce some of the world’s best artisan chilled sake. Vine Connections is headquartered in Sausalito, California.
