Our Team
We're fortunate to be surrounded by people who care as deeply about this land as we do.
Debbie & Quinn Stepan
This vineyard has always been about more than wine — it's about family, connection, and the joy of sharing something beautiful with the people you love. Debbie and Quinn have spent years building Deux Vert into a place that feels like home, and we're grateful every day for the community that has grown up around it. We invite you to make it yours, too.

Estate Caretaker
Tony Rynders has been making outstanding wine for 35 years. With degrees in microbiology from the University of Wisconsin and a Masters in Enology and Viticulture from the University of California at Davis, Tony understands the art and science of making great wine. Tony made wine on three continents before settling in Oregon where he made wine for Hogue Cellars, Argyle and Domaine Serene. During his time at Domaine Serene, Tony became one of the most highly celebrated winemakers in America and received more 90+ point scores from Wine Spectator than any other winemaker during that period (1998-2008). Tony left Domaine Serene to start Tendril and Child’s Play, his own labels, and a consulting/custom winemaking business.
Debbie and Quinn met Tony shortly after they bought Deux Vert in 2018 and feel fortunate to be working with him on their wines.
