Michael Alexander
Born and raised in Calgary, I grew up in a wine loving family. It was while in university studying European History that I found wine. After completing my B.A I returned to the Okanagan, but this time to fulfill my dream of working in the cellar. That’s when I found my life’s calling and decided to hone my craft at Niagara College. Upon completion of the Wine and Viticulture program, I returned to Kelowna and have been running the day-to-day operation of a cellar, eventually becoming head winemaker in 2018. Since then, I have continued to pursue my passion for organic and biodynamic winemaking.
My skill sets lie in vineyard & cellar management, organic practices, helping wines find their path to being their best selves and in operation logistics.
When not working I find myself enjoying time with my family, and exploring the Okanagan.

My journey into wine started in managing social media and branding for breweries & wineries in Nova Scotia. As my love for winemaking grew and I found myself working in Nova Scotia, Niagara and now making wine in BC industry.
I have a Psychology Degree, a business diploma in Marketing & Social media management; as well as about to complete my Enology education through Washington State University.
My skill set falls into branding, hiring & training, cellar functionality & safety as well as winemaking. I enjoy figuring out ways to make things run smoother, and thinking out of the box.
In my free time I enjoy spending time with loved ones, gardening, photography and DIY projects.
Wine is what brought us together. It is what we bond over most. We have worked together in the cellar for years and it's allowed us to communicate well, to understand each other's vision and be able to help execute it. Wine is our passion, it's who we are. When we aren't working, we find ourselves hanging out with friends, family and of course our dog Moet.
