Wren's journey with wine began when she was only fifteen while living in Bordeaux and working as a nanny for a family of French vignerons. It was that summer that she recalls her first ever sip of wine—a Sauternes from the family Domaine. Although she didn't do much tasting at that age, the experience planted the seed that would eventually bloom into her career within the industry. In the decade since, Wren has worked in restaurants and wine bars across the US, earning her WSET Level 2 certification along the way. After college, she returned to France to work for a winemaker in the tiny village of Rasteau, in the Southern Rhone. There she learned about winemaking, participated in harvest, and even dabbled in wine marketing.

There’s only one thing that rivals Wren’s love for wine, and that’s Montana! The vast landscape and boundless natural beauty are like nowhere else she has ever known. After countless summers spent hanging out with her cousins in the Crazy Mountains (visiting from Philadelphia, where she grew up), she settled in Bozeman and landed with Winegardner’s in 2024. For Wren, Winegardner’s represents the perfect marriage of her two passions: wine and the West.

What Wren loves most about wine isn't the drink itself (although she will rarely pass up a glass of pink champagne). Rather, she appreciates the rich culture that goes along with it. Wine tells a story; it gathers people together and it's fun - it has no rules!
