EMBRACE THE UNKNOWN
Rare. Complex. Exceptional.
At THE ONE IN A MILLION, we believe in the remarkable, the unique, and the extraordinary.
Founded by second-generation vintner Greta Montgomery, our mission is to craft terroir-driven wines that reflect both a deep respect for tradition and a modern commitment to precision.
Greta personally oversees every stage from vineyard to bottle, ensuring each limited-production wine tells a story of origin, intention, and artistry.
Rooted in Rutherford, Napa Valley, our estate vineyard is Napa-Green Certified, with farming focused on sustainability, balance, and minimal intervention.
Each vintage is harvested by hand in small lots, vinified with meticulous care, and aged in new French oak barrels to preserve purity and expression. At the core of our philosophy is a willingness to defy convention, offering a unique varietal composition in each release. The result is a collection of wines that are as distinctive as they are refined.
Created to mark life’s one-in-a-million moments. To toast the people, the milestones, and the memories that matter most.
