Our Team

Ryan Phelps, Vintner
Ryan is our Vintner. In other words, he is our wine maker and viticulture expert. He is a long time Southern Illinois local with over 10 years of wine making experience. He won the Governors Cup award in 2022 and we hope to see more of those in the future!

Caleigh Hill, Sales Manager
Caleigh is in charge of spreading the good word about Clad & Cordon wine beyond the confines of our tasting room. She is always on the go and is focused on the pursuit of sharing our wines with anyone and everyone. Interested in carrying out wines? Caleigh is your girl!

Lacey Rado (Hill), Operations Manager
Lacey is the operations gal around here. She has a hand in most things that happen at the winery, but her main focus is the tasting room, social media, customer service, and events. This is the usual friendly face you’ll see when you visit us!
