But when Cecilia and her family visited California in 2009,
she immediately fell in love with wine country.

Attaching herself to anyone who would teach her, she quickly learned the craft and began winning awards for her wines.
Now on her 13th vintage as winemaker, Cecilia has honed her skills and begun experimenting with varietals not usually found in the Russian River area and winemaking practices not commonly implemented in the United States.
She is all about pushing the envelope and feels that her unique entry into winemaking empowers her to think outside the box.
