Miranda Smith
Miranda has been our office manager since 2013 and oversees all of our compliance, accounting, payroll and human resource activities. She is also Jim's left hand - the one that writes the checks.
Maggie Harris
Our Wine Club Coordinator, Maggie, is a native of the East Coast who has called Sonoma County home for 10 years. She’s a hospitality pro who has worked in a variety of area restaurants and wineries. She says she’s always had an affinity for small, family wineries where there is an opportunity to build relationships with club members and guests.
Kathleen Southworth
A seasoned winery professional, Kathleen is our Marketing & Media Coordinator, responsible for all of the brochures, signs, and handouts created for our events and wine club shipments. She comes with extensive experience in winery hospitality and also handles our Social Media posts and videos on Facebook and Instagram as well as being our liaison for advertising and public relations. Her home is in Cloverdale, which she shares with her Maine Coon cat and her husband.
Alex (Ozzy) Osborne
A gregarious chap from London, England, Ozzy is our Tasting Room Manager as well as handing sales to wine stores and restaurants. Always ready to help with all manner of winery projects, he most enjoys taking our visitors on tours through the vineyards and wine caves while explaining the history of our ranch and winery. His interests include cooking, beer-making, swimming and hiking - he completed the John Muir trail in less than 18 days!
Christine Cureton
Born in Chicago but a Sonoma County girl at heart, Christine is our Tasting Room Associate, greeting guests and pouring wine. She’s a culinary school graduate whose passion is food and wine - our go-to for pairing suggestions and event preparations. She’s spent 20 years in the wine industry in Sonoma County, and lives in Cloverdale. Says Christine “I met the love of my life in 2019. Buddy, the best rescue dog ever, now we are inseparable!” She bakes a terrific dog cookie, too.
Tilly
Tilly is the Winery Dog, very happy to see you and be the hostess to our four-legged guests. An Aussie Cattle Dog, she came to us through the Dogwood Rescue folks. She loves playing with her furry cohorts in the Winery office, finding gopher holes to explore, and taking long walks in the vineyard with Jim & Eliza.
