Loring Wine Company<br />
Loring Wine Company is a small winery dedicated to the pro<strong>du</strong>ction<br />
the finest Pinot Noirs from California. The brother and sister team<br />
of Brian and Kimberly Loring act as co-owners and co-winemakers.<br />
Along <strong>with</strong> their assistant winemaker, Rachel Silkowski, and their<br />
83-year-old mom, they’re able to pro<strong>du</strong>ce 9,000 cases of extremely<br />
yummy Pinot Noir each year. They source fruit from arguably the<br />
greatest Pinot Noir Vineyards in California. Vineyards such as Keefer<br />
Ranch, Rosella’s, Garys’, Clos Pepe, and Cargasacchi. They’ve been<br />
featured in numerous articles and have received more than 100 90+<br />
point scores from Wine Spectator.<br />
Brian Loring<br />
After the untimely crash of the Llama Farming In<strong>du</strong>stry in the mid<br />
-90s, Brian decided to place his remaining nest egg (about yolk<br />
size) in a much safer investment—a winery. He chose to make<br />
Pinot Noir since that was pretty much all he liked to drink—except<br />
for Champagne. The smartest thing he did was to brazenly copy<br />
everything that Adam and Dianna Lee did at Si<strong>du</strong>ri. After all, isn’t<br />
imitation the sincerest form of flattery?<br />
Brian kept his day job writing military software as the winery<br />
grew. Torpedoes, Missiles, and Pinot – oh my! He likes to think<br />
that he was keeping the world safe for Pinot Noir. After securing<br />
incriminating photos of some of the top reviewers in the country,<br />
the winery rocketed to fame. So much so that he was able to quit<br />
his day job and go full-time wine in 2005. Today, Brian lives the life<br />
of the gentleman winemaker… while his sister, Kimberly, does all<br />
the work.<br />
