Andréa McBride was born in Los Angeles and raised in New Zealand, where she got to learn firsthand the art of grape farming from her uncle in Marlborough. From tending the vines as a child to drinking the wine as an adult, her love affair with the New Zealand grape and the land it grows on has been a long an enduring one. While studying at The University of Southern California Andréa had her wine inspired epiphany one night shortly before graduation… “All I want to do is drink great wine, have a good time and make a difference in the world!

It was a cry that was heard all the way in Monterey California, by her sister Robin. Also born in Los Angeles, Robin was raised in beautiful Monterey around coastal tide pools, forests and vineyards. Having interests in physics and chemistry and after years in corporate America, she was ready for something more fulfilling and Andréa's vision clicked. The sisters both worked tirelessly to mould their different ideas and passions into a reality - it was destiny.     

And so eco.love was born. A company that is as much about respecting the environment and great tasting  sustainable wines, as it is about living life and having a great time. “We believe that everybody can be innovative and creative in their own way, eco.love Wines is our way.
