The Marchelle Story

Marchelle Wines is a personal new chapter from renowned Sonoma winemaker Greg La Follette, co-founder Kevin Lee, and co-winemaker Evan Damiano. A student of André Tchelistcheff and a foundational force behind celebrated Sonoma wines, Greg brings decades of pedigree to Marchelle’s site-driven Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

Named for “Mara” and “Michelle,” the wives of Greg and Kevin, Marchelle is built on friendship, craft, and a love story told through wine.
