About Us: <\/h2>\n

The Winemaker: Ayele Solomon<\/h2>\n

I’ve always enjoyed working with my hands and building things. I began cooking at an early age and chemistry was one of my favorite subjects.<\/p>\n

It all started with two simple ingredients and an idea: to refine Ethiopia’s ancient national beverage, t’ej (\u1320\u1305), as a natural wine with the floral and fragrant – non-bitter – qualities of honey while having the balance and complexity of grape wine.<\/p>\n

It became an obsession leading to five years of aging and fermenation trials using the latest wine science and equipment. Almost 200 generations of women home t’ej makers taught and inspired me. Yet every new vintage teaches more and improves.<\/p>\n

I hope one day Bee D’Vine<\/a> will not be just a delicious drink but a way to promote the culture and knowledge around honey wine<\/a>, improve rural beekeepers’ livelihoods in America, and around the world, and conserve natural habitats and bees.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0SUSTAINABILITY IS KEY<\/span>
A Lifelong Passion<\/h2>\n

\n Ayele comes from two generations of pioneering commercial farmers in Ethiopia. This background and growing up appreciating nature on family safaris in Kenya has influenced his connection to both farming and nature.<\/p>\n

These interests led him to participate as a youth delegate at the Earth Summit in 1992 and later to embark on a career in conservation and agriculture taking him throughout Africa and the world.<\/p>\n

During a trip to Ethiopia\u2019s Kafa rainforest in 2009, he had an idea that might help save the endangered forest: Why not find a way to make trees more valuable to local residents \u2013 by producing honey \u2013 so that they had an incentive to protect them.

\n Ayele, Food & Wine Magazine Tastemaker<\/a>, realized that these flowering forest trees were an ideal source of nectar that bees use to make valuable honey. This set him on a quest to better understand the art and business of creating honey wine.<\/p>\n

\n Additional inspirations came by way of a tradition of family grape growing in California and Ethiopia’s national beverage t\u2019ej. He chose the world-class wine region of Sonoma Valley not far from where he grew up and where his father had planted a boutique vineyard in 2005.<\/p>\n

Now Ayele manages the vineyard and makes grape wine<\/span> every year: a field-blend of organic Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah. This experience and inspiration informs his craft of honey wines.

PERFECTION COMES IN DIFFERENT FORMS<\/span><\/p>\n

The Unique Flavors of Bee d’Vine<\/h2>\n

Ultra-smooth and fragrant, Bee d\u2019Vine is produced in small batches from just two ingredients – premium raw honey purchased directly from beekeepers and pure spring water. <\/span><\/p>\n

The result is finely aged wine but without bitter tannin aftertaste found in grape wine \u2013<\/span>\u00a0see our FAQ<\/a> page.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Try the sweet and delightfully light taste of Demi Sec. Or the mind-blowing \u2013\u00a0honey-yet-dry and crisp \u2013\u00a0Brut.<\/span><\/p>\n

All our award winning wines are less than 150 calories per glass, have no naturally occurring sulfites, are gluten free, and 12.5% alcohol or less.<\/span><\/p>\n

Honey wine has a very small footprint. There’s no irrigation, no pesticides, no uprooting landscapes to plant vineyards – in fact bees pollinate plants and create food!<\/span><\/p>\n
