March is a time to recognize the impact of women leaders across industries,  and at Wente Family Vineyards, women play a vital role in shaping the future of one of America’s most historic wineries. Founded in 1883, Wente Family Vineyards is proudly owned and operated by the fifth generation of the Wente family. Today, women across the organization are helping lead strategy, viticulture, brand development, and revenue growth.

 

  • Aly Wente, Chief Revenue Officer, oversees national sales strategy and commercial performance across wholesale. marketing and direct channels.
 
  • Niki Wente, Director of Vineyard Operations, leads estate vineyard farming with a focus on sustainability and quality from the ground up.
 
  • Jordan Wente, Brand Ambassador, connects the family’s five-generation story to trade and consumers nationwide.
 
  • Christine Wente, Director of the Board, helps guide long-term vision and governance for the family-owned business.

 

Wente's leadership exemplifies its ongoing commitment to innovation, stewardship, and excellence across generations. This leadership is reflected in its market performance. The Wente Family Vineyards Morning Fog Chardonnay was recently recognized as one of the Top 10 Value Wines of 2025 by Wine Spectator, further enhancing the brand's reputation for providing award-winning quality at accessible price points. With consistent scores of 90 points and strong consumer recognition, Morning Fog continues to gain momentum both on store shelves and in restaurants.

 

Backed by five generations of winemaking expertise and trusted by retailers and operators nationwide, Wente Family Vineyards offers a portfolio that overdelivers on quality, heritage, and value. This March, we celebrate the women helping shape the next chapter of Wente Family Vineyards and the continued momentum of a family legacy built to perform.
