As Managing Member and Director of Sales for Stringer Cellars and a partner in Lupin Ranch, he combines his passion for exceptional wine, food, and hospitality with a commitment to showcasing some of California's most prestigious vineyard sites. Working alongside winemaker Casey Stringer, Chris has helped build a portfolio of highly acclaimed wines known for their balance, elegance, and sense of place. His dedication to quality, relationship-building, and craftsmanship continues to drive the success of both wineries.Casey Stringer discovered his passion for wine during a formative family trip to Napa Valley, where the region's vineyards, wines, and relaxed lifestyle inspired him to pursue a career in winemaking. After beginning his journey in the wine industry at a local wine shop in Wisconsin, Casey moved to California and quickly traded photography studies for hands-on winery work. Over the years, he gained experience with respected producers in Napa Valley, Oregon, and New Zealand, where he also received formal winemaking education.
