Founded in 2012 by Thomas and Kristin Vogele, Luke Wines is an estate-grown winery in Washington’s Wahluke Slope, making a boutique portfolio of bold reds with a particular focus on Cabernet Sauvignon. The brand highlights a team of women winemakers and produces vegan-friendly, gluten-free wines. Originally owned by the Vogeles, Luke Wines was acquired by Evergreen Family Wines in December 2025; the founders are expected to remain involved for at least three years.
