The Wine Company was founded in 1985 with the mission of offering the best selection of integrity filled wines to the most discriminating retailers and restaurants in Minnesota. Formed by a collective of wine lovers led by Larry Colbeck, the mission of the company over the years has not altered: bring the best of the wine world to Minnesota. In the over 25 years since, the focus and the mission have changed little, but our reach and influence have multiplied many times over. What started as a tiny operation with a handful of wineries has become a major force in the Minnesota wine industry. Thank you for your interest in The Wine Company.
