Julie Pedroncelli

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 refining our focus to restaurants and
casual dining/meet-up wine bars and independent wine shops across
the nation.

to the transfer of ownership of the company to the third
generation (now a 70% woman owned company with a woman
winemaker!)

to the second decade in the new millenium where the fourth
generation is coming up the ranks...

Nine decades strong, we are still family owned and
operated.It all adds up to tradition, heritage and a family of
wines you can enjoy with confidence.
