From their website: "Delicious small lots of California wine are the specialty of Rapazzini Winery. Rapazzini Winery was birthed in 1962 by Jon Rapazzini at the intersection of Highways 101 and 25 just south of Gilroy California. Winemaking is under the direction of 1982 graduate of the California Culinary Academy Chef and owner Alex Larson. His previous ristorante and bar, Sandrino's had a 3 1/2 star rating from the San Jose Mercury News and held the Wine Spectator magazine Award of Excellence.
His partnership with brother Charlie Larson continues at Rapazzini Winery, where the brothers have worked since 1994. Charlie and Alex Larson purchased the winery in 2000. We continue to strive to make great wines at an affordable price that can be offered as older vintages than most wineries." (
