For Jen, wine has always been about connection to place, to people, and to purpose. Raised in New Jersey, her family taught her to express love through good food, and she discovered wine while working in New York’s fine dining scene, where she learned how a single glass could bring people together. Years later, after earning her master’s in clinical psychology and becoming a practicing psychotherapist, she and Steve created PROMISE, a boutique winery inspired by their shared vow to live with intention and make meaning through craft. Jennifer approaches each bottle as both storyteller and muse, ensuring that every wine captures not only a sense of place but the emotion behind it. Whether tending the organic garden at PROMISE Ranch or sharing wines with members, she remains guided by the belief that life’s most meaningful moments are meant to be savored and shared.
