Most of us flow through life in search of our passion. To find it, and to make a living at it, at any stage of life is in an amazing accomplishment. Aryn was lucky enough to discover his passion at an early age. Winemaking is the first chapter of his career, and the only one.
As a new college graduate with a chemical engineering degree, Aryn was searching for his purpose. While visiting Napa Valley, he first witnessed the beautiful blend of science and creativity that winemaking embodies and knew immediately he was to become a winemaker.
Even at the young age of 22, Aryn also understood that to succeed passion must be fused with commitment, experience, and expertise. The first step in his journey was to learn from some of the best. In search of knowledge, Aryn dove headfirst into the industry in Napa - working at Golden State Vintners, Edgewood Estates and Silver Oak.
After 5 years in CA, in 2007 Aryn (a native of WA state), decided to return home to build a brand he had recently started in the Napa Foothills - Alleromb. This next chapter in his journey began within a new terroir ripe with unique potential to apply his knowledge and the freedom to evolve, experiment, and grow without restriction. 15 years later, over 150,000 cases made and well over 100 90+ rated wines, shows the right choice was made.
Since 2007 Aryn Morells’ modern approach to making wine has helped define WA winemaking, playing a key role in bringing Napa Valley expertise to Washington. Currently producing some of the most acclaimed wines for wineries such as Matthews, Tenor, Gard Vintners and Mullan Road Cellars of the Cakebread family to name a few. As one of the nations’s most prolific winemakers, you’d think he’d be tired. In fact, it’s quite the opposite.
“The more wine we’ve made for others, the more inspired we’ve become, and the clearer the vision of what we uniquely wanted to produce for ourselves became. Our collection of premium brands is this inspiration realized” - Aryn
