Peace & Chaos
STORY
Honoring all those who serve, tied together by an invisible string that is chaos, in an enduring effort to protect peace.
Our Vision
Peace and Chaos Wines was founded by Rich Stewart. Rich is originally from the Midwest but always dreamed of living in California. While serving in the military as a young man, he discovered a love for wine while traveling throughout Europe. After leaving the military, he joined the California Highway Patrol and served the people of California for 31 years as peace officer, and eventually ascended to the executive level of the organization before retiring as Assistant Commissioner, Field. Throughout those years, Rich had the honor to serve alongside some truly extraordinary people in the military, public safety, and emergency medical services. Peace & Chaos Wines was created as a result of a lifelong endeavor to pursue his passion for wine. The inspiration for the name “Peace & Chaos” is the juxtaposition of these two realms of striving for peace in a world of chaos. These wines are a salute to all those who have sacrificed to make the world a better place.
Our Mission
Our Mission Statement is “Exceptional Wines in Honor of Exceptional People.” Our pledge is to craft the finest wines from the highest quality vineyards.
