Seghesio Family Vineyards
Our 34nd Anniversary Celebration
Sunday July 19th, 2009, 5:30 p.m.
One of the most memorable trips WINO made was one to Sonoma. There the highlight of the trip was the visit to the Seghesio Family Ranch. They hosted us for a fabulous dinner and tour of the grounds. Ted Seghesio will be with us to celebrate another anniversary. Italian immigrant Eduardo Seghesio planted his first vineyard in Sonoma County in 1895. Today, his grandsons and great-grandsons continue his legacy and are leaders of Zinfandel and Italian varietal wine production in California. Executive Chef, Robin Nishizaki and General Manager, Patrick Kolanoski of Eric’s Restaurant have created a menu to showcase these vintages.
