John Parducci

Chances are that John has been making wine longer than most of us have been alive. He is a third generation winemaker who has perfected this trait for almost seven decades. During prohibition John's father, Adolph, sent young John to Hoboken, N. J. to sell their grapes to home winemakers. John was 14 years old at that time! He returned home in the spring of 1933 and soon participated in the first of a lifetime of grape harvests. John has earned the reputation for being an honest, straight forward, no frills style winemaker and it is well deserved. Arguably, John Parducci has won more awards and accolades than any other winemaker in California.

Richard Parducci 

Grandson of John, Rich is the fourth generation Parducci to be a winemaker. Introduced to the wine industry at the age of 12. Rich has worked in almost every facet of the industry, from bottling, vineyard, laboratory to cellar. A 1992 graduate of California State University Fresno in Enology, Rich brings a cutting edge approach which compliments John‘s traditional winemaking style.
