Winemaker Ann Sperling is not just your average ‘flying winemaker’; having great respect for viticulture and distinctive terroirs, she likes to spend a good deal of time ‘on the ground’ in the vineyard. Sperling Vineyards is particularly close to Ann's heart; it's the land she grew up on; a family farm since the 1880s. Ann continues to achieve excellence at Sperling: learning from the past & forging new paths. Ann's won many international awards; recently 2021 Riedel Winemaker of the Year.

Every day is different and very creative! And I love creating wine labels. And the wine lifestyle experience in BC is on par with what I’ve seen in places like Australia. It’s a world class experience, especially if you get to meet the owners and winemakers. I love the small lot producers – they are passionate and let me be strategic and creative. It’s the best work! The best part, working with visionary clients who let me run with entire projects like a mobile canning project. Business Marketing, Dreadlocks, Hair Styles, Vancouver, Style
