Our Founder

Laura Huston is an entrepreneur, storyteller, and community builder on a mission to prove that how we spend, gather, and connect matters.

After entering the wine industry in Washington State in 2011, she founded Belle & Bottle in 2016 to champion family-owned wineries, women entrepreneurs, and the small businesses bringing character, craftsmanship, and hospitality back to the forefront. Her work has earned national recognition, including honors from Food & Wine, Wine Enthusiast, and the Washington Wine Commission.

Over the years, Laura realized the conversation was bigger than wine. Every day, we make choices about where we spend our money, who we support, and what kind of future we're helping create. The question became simple: if we're already spending money on food, wine, travel, and experiences, why not support the people and businesses creating the world we actually want to live in?

Today, Laura leads Belle & Bottle, the Belle & Bottle Foundation, and her new Wildroot Farm outside Nashville, Tennessee. Together, they're creating opportunities to discover remarkable people, places, and brands while helping shape a future where connection, hospitality, stewardship, and purpose aren't the exception—they're the expectation.

You will never find a better club membership. Thank you Belle & Bottle for introducing us to some great wines from other regions that we would otherwise have no idea about. If not for you we would be stuck in the rut, drinking the old standbys. I find myself excited to see what the next shipment will contain... Oh and let's not forget about the Bubbles Club!!

Can’t recommend more highly! Laura handpicks regional gems along with other unheard-of treats from vineyards afar. Everything she’s sent has been a hit. She is also kind enough to customize cases based on our preferences of the moment…bold reds to roses to bubbles. Her service and taste is really unmatched. You won’t find this kind of variety, quality and super fast delivery with other bigger wine clubs or providers. Thank you, Laura!

Belle & Bottle is my favorite wine membership. I always get something new and it's a great way to try new wineries without being locked into one. It took Laura no time at all to know my preferences and tastes. I look forward to my selections each month as well as the events and tastings. Highly recommended!

We’re so touched that Belle & Bottle has chosen Life’s Big Adventures as the November partner for their Cases For A Cause program. Belle & Bottle generously donated $50 per case to Life's Big Adventures charity. Our family has ordered quite a few of the mixed cases, and they are always filled with the most wonderful selections. They make terrific gifts and are a great way to stock your cellar for the holidays!
