  • Stephen Bachem

    Stephen comes from a diverse work background that primarily specialized in sales and marketing. His career journey has finally come to a crossroads with his true passion in life: wine. He has studied and tasted wine since he was of legal age, and decided to embark on an actual career journey with it as well, becoming WSET Level 2 Certified, With Distinction, in Wines. His next goal is to become fully certified dipWSET , eventually finding his way to the Master of Wine program. He has lived in California, Oregon, and Washington wine countries. Living in those regions has allowed him to visit wineries all over, meeting with producers and workers to discuss, taste and expand the never-ending pool of knowledge on the incredible drink that we all know and love. His favorite wine is red wine from cooler climates. Specifically, my dream destination of France. Outside of his work passions, his life passions include my family first and foremost. He has a gorgeous wife who gave him 2 step children, and he welcomed my first child in March 2023, Stephen Bachem III. They all love to hang out and spend time together. He is very passionate on sports, as a fan and a player his whole life. His other personal hobbies include reading, playing some strategy video games or board games with the family, and a minor study in cooking. All around a relaxed man who just loves his wine.
