Dario grew up on his family’s farm in Veneto, Italy. He began formal education in enology at age 14, and ten years later received his Masters’ degree in winemaking. Dario funded his decade of tuition payments by working at his family’s pizzeria, where he learned the fine art of the pizzaiolo and ignited a lifelong passion for pizza.
He also found inspiration in Italian wine culture, which treats wine as a joyful part of everyday life, rather than something to show off or put on a pedestal. He pours his playful spirit and loving intention into every heartcrafted wine he makes.
Born in Abano Terme in northern Italy, Stefano comes from two generations of wine and spirit makers. Stefano was raised in his family's winery, which he eventually ran and holds an enology degree from Scuola Enologica di Conegliano. After twelve years of experience in Italy, Stefano made the move to the US, where he has utilized Italian tradition in California winemaking. Stefano has more than 35 years of winemaking experience and can always be found in the winery tirelessly running production, passionately creating blends, and exploring new wine equipment.
