About Galen Glen
Sustainably Farmed / Natural, Low Intervention / Woman owned
Galen Glen Winery is led by one of America's rare mother-daughter winemaker and winegrower teams, Sarah and Erin Troxell. Located on a historic family farm in Pennsylvania's Lehigh Valley, the winery is built on the belief that exceptional wines begin in the vineyard and should reflect the unique character of the land where they are grown.
Sarah, an award-winning winemaker and chemist, has spent more than three decades crafting wines that have helped define Pennsylvania's quality wine movement. Erin, the winery's winegrower, combines international viticultural experience with a deep understanding of the family's vineyards, overseeing every stage of the growing season to ensure each vintage expresses its site.
Together, Sarah and Erin guide every step of the process from vine to bottle, making decisions rooted in both science and agriculture. Their partnership represents a continuity of knowledge, passion, and stewardship, carrying the family farm into its next generation.
The winery was founded by Sarah and her husband, Galen Troxell, a mechanical engineer, farmer, and visionary whose innovative approach helped transform the family farm into one of the East Coast's most respected wine estates. While Sarah built the winery's reputation through her winemaking, Galen's commitment to the land and relentless pursuit of improvement shaped the vineyards and infrastructure that support the winery today.
Now working alongside them is Erin's husband, Garrett, who plays an active role in both the vineyard and winery. Together, the family combines generations of experience with a shared commitment to farming, ensuring that Galen Glen's estate-grown wines continue to reflect the character of their land and the values that have guided the family for generations.
