Producer

Ferrari-Carano Vineyards and Winery was founded in 1981 by Don and Rhonda Carano, who were inspired by the beauty of Northern Sonoma County while sourcing wines for their Reno hotel and casino. They began with a 60-acre parcel in Alexander Valley and expanded their holdings over time. The winery released its first wines in 1987, including a 1986 Fumé Blanc and a 1985 Alexander Valley Chardonnay. In 2019, Ferrari-Carano's 21 vineyards earned California Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance certification, reflecting their commitment to sustainable practices. The winery is renowned for its Italianate architecture, Villa Fiore hospitality center, and five acres of exquisite gardens that attract numerous visitors annually.
