Since 1927, when John Pedroncelli, Sr. purchased vineyard and a small
winery in Sonoma County's Dry Creek Valley, two elements remain
unchanged: the exceptional place the Pedroncelli family farms
vineyards, and the family's dedication to making fine wines.
- From
selling grapes to home winemakers during prohibition in
order to keep the vineyards going,
- to growing a small base of
business during the 1930s and 1940s,
- to the second generation
joining their father: son John becoming winemaker in 1948 followed
by Jim in 1955 as sales director,
- to 1963 when the winery was
officially purchased by John and Jim from their father,
- to growing
the line of wines in the 1960s with vineyard expansion and diversification,
- to the boom time of the 1970s and 1980s along with many changes
and additions to our sales base including national sales and
export,
- the third generation coming on board and vineyard replanting
in the 1990s
- to the 21st century where the fourth generation
is coming up the ranks...
and it is still a family owned business.
It
all adds up to tradition, heritage and a family of wines you
can enjoy with confidence.
