The Brand

Veso

Veso

San Francisco, CA

Est. 2021

Veso makes wine-based aperitifs, produced and bottled by hand at a winery in San Francisco, California. Each bottle starts from a real California wine, then gets infused with whole fruits, hand-peeled citrus, and whole spices rather than extracts or concentrates.

The Founder's Note

Founder Chris Beyer built Veso out of an unusual mix of backgrounds: engineering, design, experiential hosting, small-batch wine-making, and software engineering. He describes building each aperitif intuitively, 'like putting a puzzle together with my eyes closed,' drawing on a knowledge base built years earlier in wine-making.

How It's Made

Veso infuses real California wine and grape spirits with whole ingredients, whole strawberries with their green tops still on, hand-peeled citrus, whole spices, and tea leaves, rather than using flavor extracts. Everything is produced and bottled by hand at their San Francisco winery in small, individually numbered batches.

Tasting Notes

Bright and piney, softer and more delicate than a gin, with fennel on the nose and finish and grapefruit and bitter orange peel adding brightness, like walking through an alpine mountain meadow.
