ABOUT

 

STARTED BY WINEMAKERS, FOR WINEMAKERS.

Founded in 2018 by Fintan du Fresne and Daniel Krichevsky, both passionate winemakers with strong mechanical backgrounds. Knowing the challenge and cost of finding effective, specialized winery contractors, they set out to fill the need. They are now partnered with most of the major equipment suppliers and service over 400 wineries on the Central Coast.

 
 

MEET THE TEAM


  • Founder, CEO

    Following an undergrad in Geology with post-grad in Viticulture and Enology, Fin moved to California in 2003.  Stints at Calera and Adelaida served him well before landing as head winemaker at Domaine Alfred.  Fin is currently General Manager and Winemaker for Chamisal Vineyards and Malene Wines.  He has served on a number of Boards including WOPN and SLO Coast Wine Collective.  He is an advisory member for WIVI and Central Coast Insights and a technical advisor to Cal Poly.  Fin is passionate about sustainability and efficiency- both energy and labor efficiency- how can we do more with less?


  • COO

    A native to SLO County and Cal Poly Grad, Daniel has seen it all at a number of the Central Coast’s finest: Stephen Ross Wine Cellars, Center of Effort and San Antonio Winery. Daniel has a natural inclination for all things mechanical and is arguably the most experienced technician on the Central Coast.
