HISTORY…“Silicon Valley” - it’s easy to forget this area’s role as California’s first premium wine production region - the Santa Clara Valley. Native Americans named it “the Valley of the Heart’s Delight.” French and Italian immigrants who settled here during the Gold Rush era recognized the rich soils and Mediterranean climate as the perfect New World home for their European grape varietals. And so it begins.

FAMILY…A handful of proud, dedicated, award-winning winemakers still carry on our ancestor’s traditions of excellence. �rough World Wars, the Great Depression, and Prohibition, our family winegrowers of the Santa Clara Valley have honed their craft and spread the belief that fine wine is an important, civilized part of a healthy and gracious lifestyle.

HOSPITALITY…Take a trip to a more relaxed wine region. Visiting our historic wineries is to leave the Computer Age behind. �e person pouring for you in our Tasting Rooms may very well be the winemaker! When you are on vacation or business, please be sure to visit our conveniently situated wineries throughout the Valley. Daily tasting is available at most of our wineries. Many offer tours, special festivals, concerts, and dinners. Several are available for picture-perfect private parties, corporate events, and weddings.

Please join us!
