I graduated from Sonoma High and went to the University of Nevada Reno, where I played football on a full scholarship. I was drafted in 2006 to the Green Bay Packers, which was an eye-opening experience — being a rookie, I was a player that could easily get cut from the team.Joining the Packers motivated me to work hard and make the best of what was put in front of me. I ended up starting my rookie year and blocking for Brett Favre.

We especially wanted to create a winery that was luxurious but didn't feel exclusive. It doesn't matter who you are or where you come from: If you walk into our tasting room, you're going to have an amazing experience.
