Our Team

FOUNDER & WINEMAKER

McPrice 'Mac' Myers has been crafting high-expression wines of balance, value, and place since 2002.

A lifelong, self-proclaimed "food and wine geek,” Mac was a quick study and almost immediately had the press lauding his wines from near and far. His passion for unique sites in Paso Robles and California's Central Coast, combined with his meticulous attention to detail in the cellar, result in stunning wines that more than live up to the hype.

DIRECTOR OF SALES

Patrick has a long and diverse history in the wine business. As a career-long seeker of the next great brand to build and story to tell, Patrick began “selling” the idea of winemaker McPrice Myers in 2005. His experience as a distributor, a sales director, and a branding agent for clients has given him, and us, an edge on the front lines of distribution. Patrick has a first-hand, primary understanding of what makes our wines and our winemaking namesake so unique. For this reason and many others, Patrick is able to deliver our message directly, personally, and with authenticity.
