Dry Farm Wines boasts partnerships with over 800 family growers across Europe, the result of deep connections that Todd formed while traveling the globe in search of vineyards that uphold heritage winemaking traditions.

Todd developed the Dry Farm Wines Certification for finding the purest Artisan Wines on the planet. This included a strict set of criteria: only organically farmed, sugar free, lower alcohol, lower sulfite, lab tested wines. It was from this personal journey that Dry Farm Wines was born. Todd sets out to share more of these pure Artisan wines with the world, and to educate people on what is really in their wine.
