Meet the Brownes.

Browne Family Vineyards was founded by noted wine entrepreneur Andrew Browne as a tribute to his family and to honor his late grandfather, mentor, veteran, and community stalwart, William Bitner Browne. Whether you are visiting one of Browne’s tasting rooms or opening a bottle in your own home, Andrew and his wife Courtney welcome you to their extended family where good friends, good food and wine, and good times are always on the agenda.

“My grandfather embodied the American dream. Bitner’s 50-year law career, over 60 years of marriage to my grandmother Dottie, and more than 40 years of volunteer service in civic and charitable organizations made him a pillar of his community. My grandfather’s legacy inspired one simple question I ask daily: What would Bitner do? Make great wines, practice empathy, strive for excellence, and leave the world a better place.”
