The Secret Ingredient
The Secret Identity
What is now Orphan Tears, began in 1914 labeled under the family name, which remains a guarded secret for obvious reasons. In 1917, a Chinese refugee named Liu Jeung Pei was taken on as a hired hand to the family vinyard. Liu, through his knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, began adding his own steps and ingredients to enhance the winemaking process. The family learned of Liu's innovations, and in 1918, bottled the new recipe under the label Vin Lue. In 1920, Vin Lue changed labels once again, and is still produced today, so labeled for its namesake, Orphan Tears.
