August 1, 2026 — Skurnik Wines & Spirits announced a new distribution partnership with Union Wine Company. Effective today, Skurnik will represent Union Wine Company’s full complement of wines—Underwood, Kings Ridge, Christopher Michael Wines, and Amity Vineyards—throughout New York State.
Founded in 2005 by winemaker Ryan Harms, Union Wine Company is an independent, family-owned Oregon winery. It has been a certified B Corporation since 2024 and supports the National Parks Conservation Association as part of its commitment to environmental stewardship. Union Wine Company’s five estate vineyards and long-term partnerships with small growers form the foundation of its four hallmark brands. Underwood offers bottled and canned wines, including a zero-proof selection. Kings Ridge, based in the Chehalem Mountains AVA, was Union Wine Company’s first brand and produces Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, and Chardonnay. Christopher Michael Wines draws on Oregon’s diverse growing regions alongside Washington’s Horse Heaven Hills. Amity Vineyards, a Willamette Valley fixture since 1974, produces Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc, and Riesling.
“We are thrilled to welcome Ryan and Union Wine Company to join our family of wineries,” said David Skurnik, President of Skurnik Wines & Spirits. “Union Wine Company has been a pioneer in Oregon winemaking, working with integrity and transparency from day one. Their commitment to quality winemaking at scale, approachability, and sustainable packaging has always been forward-thinking, and we are proud to represent their wines.”
Ryan Harms, President, Union Wine Company, said, “We were looking for a partner who thinks about this business the way we do, and Skurnik was the obvious choice. They’re independent and family-owned; they’ve spent nearly forty years earning the trust of New York’s best restaurants and retailers, and they’ve done it by backing families who farm with care and make honest wine. That’s who we are in Oregon, so this partnership makes a lot of sense to us.”
