Our Story: A Twist of Fate and a Love for Wine.
The Seamstress Wine Co. wasn’t part of our original plan. In fact, after purchasing the vineyard from Matchy’s dad and uncle in 2015, we vowed never to start our own label. However, in 2024, when our grape contract fell through for the first time in over 25 years, we were left with a tough decision. Seeing our beautiful Semillon fruit without a home, we took a leap of faith and decided to create our own wine label.
The name 'The Seamstress Wine Co.' has a special meaning for us. Fifteen years ago, while working at a wine company, Alice pitched this name for a 'female-friendly' wine. Though it wasn’t chosen back then, the name has come full circle. Now, alongside her work on her table linen brand, Bright Threads, Alice is bringing this serendipitous idea to life in a way that’s more relevant than ever. It’s funny how life works out sometimes!
