Our Story

Dan and Jacqueline met at UC Davis and then worked around the world in the wine industry. When they both came back to California, Dan spent three years making traditional California sparkling wines, while Jacqueline was working with still wines from various terroirs across the Golden State.

These experiences led the two to realize there was a hole in the market for some sparkling innovation, and they took the leap with Carboniste. They strive to create wines of distinction and “spark” a revolution for bubbly lovers everywhere. You can expect their wines to express California’s sunshine, warm days, and cool nights with bright, fruity, and fresh qualities.

These wines are meant for your everyday excuse to pop a bottle and celebrate yourself and those around you. So no laying these down, drink up, and live well! Join the adventure in each sip of their modern sparkling wines.
