Andis Wines
The soils in the Sierra Foothills are special, capable of growing a vast selection of varietals, including grapes traditionally considered obscure to California.
As an avid wine enthusiast and Napa frequenter, to discover such a secretive wine region inspired founder, Janis Akuna. It gave her a vision to share a different kind of experience with other wine enthusiasts. But even more than that, it was the rural wine region of Amador County that struck her the most; reminiscent of the early days of Napa she so dearly missed.
In 2009, Janis and her husband, Andy Friedlander, found their own stretch of land to replant portions of a vineyard originally planted in the 1970s, while seeking out the highest quality vineyards to buy additional fruit. They built a state of the art winemaking facility with two tenets; design a sustainable winery to produce world class wines that is attractive, but different from all others.

Arretine Imports
Passion and Expertise. Our story is defined by The Arrentine Arc—an ancient path through the generational cellars of Barolo and Barbaresco, the high-altitude gates of the Luberon, and the rugged frontiers of Catalonia. Just as the famous red-gloss Arretine pottery once traveled these Roman arteries, we trace this same “highway of the ancient world” to find wines that are a refined expression of the land they were born from. Choose from French, Italian or Spanish wines whose commitment to organic and biodynamic farming mirrors the Arretine’s values. These wines are only available at the wineries or with Vintres Fine Wines.
