Saltie Girl Rosé was created by lifelong friends Kathy Sidell and Bradley Groper. Neighbors growing up in their native Boston, their mothers have been best friends for over 70 years. They were often found at each other's dinner table. The joy and chaos of these family meals is where hospitality was ingrained in each of them at a young age. Sharing formative and memorable times replete with fabulous wines, food and company greatly formed each of their futures. Saltie Girl Rosé was born with the spirit of these evenings and a true combination of both family’s passions.

Both Kathy’s and Brad's fathers were instrumental in the food and wine scene in Massachusetts and beyond. Kathy's father funded many of the top chefs in Boston. So, it was no surprise that Kathy opened her first restaurant in 2004 and today runs two of the most successful restaurants in Boston, with new, highly popular outposts in Los Angeles and London.

Bradley's family supplied most of the restaurants in Massachusetts with new and classic wines and spirits from around the globe. Today, Bradley sells wine all over the world. Together, Kathy and Bradley have sourced and crafted a sumptuous rosé blending both of their enthusiasm and expertise for hospitality, food, and great wine.
