As a young Bay Area native couple, in our twenties, we took a leap of faith by leaving our jobs in the city and moving to a country property on the extreme Sonoma Mountaintop. From the first time we stood on the land, magic overwhelmed us and we knew our lives would never be the same again. We fixed up the house, introduced the best farming practices to the land, watched countless sunrises and sunsets, wished upon hundreds of shooting stars, fell further in love, got married, and had two beautiful girls. Throughout that time, we worked passionately to create a distinctive wine so that you, too, can be overjoyed by the magic of the extreme Sonoma Mountaintop.

It’s officially the holiday season on our Sonoma Mountaintop. 🎄🥂

I can’t believe it’s already November & we only have 2 months left in the year! Harvest is officially behind us, our gorgeous 2026 vintage is fermenting in the w**ery, and a calm has settled in on the Mountaintop.

Personally, I’ve been loving the post-harvest, pre-holiday slowdown.

But… we are gearing back up for one last hurrah of the year! It’s almost time for our members’ FINAL shipment of the year, the Holiday Club Release!🎄🎀💫♥️

Swipe for a behind-the-scenes glimpse of all the holiday action in the world of Sophie James!

P.S. I’ve created a little holiday scavenger hunt in today’s slide captions. Don’t miss your extra chances at a special delivery of our newest, most precious SJ w**e!

This upcoming week is our Holiday Club Release and we are overjoyed to share our holiday w**es with this beloved community!

This final club release of the year marks the debut of our brand new Sparkling Blanc de Noirs! 🍾✨

Fun story! We took our older girls to Paris for their first trip to Europe this summer! I was so inspired by French style, both contemporary street style and artwork in the museums. I was captivated by the gorgeous portraits of Marie Antoinette. She was so elegant, and became my muse for the look of our Holiday photoshoot. Pastels, lace & decadent florals? I’m so here for it. 🎀❄️

FLASHBACK to disgorging our Sparkling Blanc de Noirs last month! Disgorging is the final stage in this brilliant Méthode Champenoise-style w**e’s nearly 3-year-long journey from vineyard to bottle - to YOU!

Sparkling Blanc de Noirs tasting notes ✨🍾 Mouthwatering cherry, vanilla, and bright lemony citrus, with a long, luxurious finish of the most decadent bubbles.

It’s everything you want in your glass this holiday season! We’re so thrilled to be able to share this special bottle with our members in our Holiday Club Release.

Harvest was an action-packed whirlwind this year! It kicked off with our earliest pick on record and was nonstop for weeks. The fruit is already smelling & tasting absolutely phenomenal in the w**ery so we know this vintage is going to be off-the-charts delicious. I can’t wait to share more about these w**es with you!

We went straight from harvest right into our Fall member release. Needless to say we needed a little family time before sending the girls back to school and heading back in to the office.

Here’s a little glimpse behind the scenes of what we’ve been up to! And spoiler alert - we have some pretty exciting news to share with your all VERY SOON!

If you’re producing with quality in mind, w**e is not a cheap product to make. Period.

Somewhere between the vineyard & your table, the cost was absorbed. Sometimes it’s the consumer that pays, sometimes it’s the farm worker, and oftentimes it’s Mother Nature.

Sophie James was founded on our mission to be the positive change we wanted to see in the world & in the w**e industry.

From day 1 we invested in farming our vineyards organically. We sold our grapes to a well-known local w**ery for many years until it was purchased by a conglomerate.

We never meant to start a w**e company. When James & I left the city & found 130 acres of wild land on Sonoma Mountain, our dream was to build a meaningful life with our daughters. The focus was, and always will be, on QUALITY. Both in our personal lives & with the w**es we share with you.

Our w**es may not be cheap, but there is no hidden cost. A long time ago, we decided our family farm would NEVER be run that way.

This is personal for us. 🤍

James & I built Sophie James because we believe there’s a better way to make w**e - one that supports independent farmers, prioritizes how the land is farmed, and puts quality over mass production.

But small family farms can’t do it alone.

If you believe in supporting independent American farmers, LIKE, SHARE, SAVE & comment with a 🫶🏼 to help this post get seen & spread the word!

And comment or DM me “WAITLIST” to learn more about how James & I are working to change the w**e industry from within. 🍷

Every time you choose to buy directly from an independent farmer or w**emaker, you’re voting for the kind of w**e industry you want to see survive.

For us, that means being able to keep farming our land organically, making high-quality w**es with intention, and continuing to build something our family can be proud of for generations.

Thank you for believing in us and our mission!

I am truly terrified for the future of family-owned w**eries right now.

Small, independently owned w**e companies are becoming increasingly vulnerable in this fragile economy. We need your support more than ever.

Join a w**e club. Visit w**e country. Buy direct from the producer. Please show you care about high-quality w**e & want to see the w**e companies you love survive.

I wish someone had handed me a playbook for surefire success when we launched Sophie James. We are on a mission to bring change to the industry and jumped in headfirst with no experience, no investors, and no industry guidance.

Armed with our story, grit, passion, and my phone, I reached a whole new audience of w**e lovers across the country and unintentionally disrupted an industry.

Don’t miss the full carousel for the playbook I would have written for my younger self.

This paradigm shift is not unique to the w**e industry. We are living through a revolution. The old gatekeepers no longer hold the keys.

For me, Sophie James - and other small business owners who had the courage to share their story - Instagram provided visibility & the influence to disrupt the traditional rules of business. It gave us the rare opportunity to compete in industries previously dominated by big corporations.

We didn’t disrupt the w**e industry by playing by their rules. We disrupted it precisely because we didn’t. We brought a fresh perspective & wasn’t afraid to experiment. It turns out our differences were the most valuable asset we could bring to our business.

We were so lucky to find an audience that cared about Mother Nature and was ready to discover our delicious, high-quality w**es, and to support our small family w**e business.
We began this journey with our mission to bring positive change to w**e, and it is the greatest honor of my life.

Every note, DM, and email I get from our community reminds me why we are here & fills me with joy.

I am so grateful for all of our members and this amazing, supportive community.

Tell me, what would you share from your playbook with your younger self?

One of those days you wish you could bottle up & keep forever... 🤍🇫🇷

Our sweet Amelie’s biggest wish was to celebrate her 13th birthday in Paris, so we surprised her with a day she’ll never forget (and we won’t either!)

From wandering the charming streets of Montmartre, to revisiting the exact spot where James proposed back in 2011, to sipping Ch*****ne on the Seine river, enjoying the most beautiful birthday lunch overlooking the Louvre, and ending the evening beneath the sparkling Eiffel Tower... every moment felt so incredibly special.

Watching our daughters experience Paris for the very first time reminded me that some of life’s greatest gifts aren’t things - they’re memories shared together.

Happy 13th birthday to our precious Amelie. We love you more than words can say, and I hope you always keep your sense of wonder and adventure. 🤍🥂✨

Community, I’d love to hear from you! Where are you traveling this summer? And if you could celebrate your birthday anywhere in the world, where would you go? 💕✈️

Oh, and just a reminder... ✨ This week we’re gifting one of you 4 bottles of your choice + a Sophie James hat! 🍷🧢

Paris will always have a special place in my heart. Fun fact: James proposed to me here back in 2011! 💍

If you’re planning a trip to Paris this summer, I hope this guide helps!
