K VINTNERS LLC
WALLA WALLA, WA

K Vintners LLC is a distinguished winery established by Charles Smith in the aftermath of a devastating freeze in 2004. The company is renowned for pioneering the HOUSE WINES label, an original concept that had never been trademarked prior to its launch. Following a transition under Precept Brands in 2006, Charles launched a second brand, Charles Smith Wines, which embodies 'The Modernist Project'—an initiative focusing on wines intended for immediate enjoyment without compromising varietal or vineyard typicity. K Vintners gained further prominence with the successful sale of its collection, including notable varieties such as Kung Fu Girl Riesling and The Velvet Devil Merlot to Constellation Brands in 2016. This partnership expanded global access to their wines. In 2017, Charles rebranded his portfolio under Wines of Substance, signifying a commitment to producing significant, universally enjoyable wines. Charles has been acclaimed in the industry with several 'Winemaker of the Year' titles by leading wine publications and consistent high scores from prestigious critics. Their distinctive branding features bold black and white labels crafted collaboratively by Charles Smith and graphic designer Rikke Korff, whose work roots deeply in Danish functional aesthetics blended with rock n’ roll directness. K Vintners emphasizes giving back to the community as integral to its ethos, reinforcing ties between family and societal contributions. As a Florida-based entity registered under state models for domestic limited liability companies (Fla. MODS), K Vintners LLC is incorporated in Palm Beach County and holds active status with incorporation dating back to November 7, 2008. Headquartered via mailing address PO Box 777 in Pinole, CA, it can be contacted via several phone lines. As of the latest data available till April 2024, the company has undergone a recent event reaffirming its operational standing. The leadership is marked by Charles Smith’s management expertise, continuing to drive innovation and excellence within the wine industry.
