Castelli Family Vineyards

Castelli Family Vineyards is a familiar story for many of California's wineries. What began as a hobby turned into something much more. The adventure began when Mike's daughter, Cassie, decided to get married at Cordiano Winery in 2008.  Its Italian owner convinced Mike to plant some vines. A few vines turned into 3,000 vines. Mike soon realized his hobby vineyard had grown into a business of caring for his young vines. Mike he recruited his son-in-law Nelson to join him. For three years, they spent most days caring meticulously for each vine. It was not long before Mike built a 1,600 sq. ft. cellar to store the wine he anticipated.  Early on Mike and Nelson soon realized that their endeavor needed advice on every aspect of growing, harvesting, and fermenting their grapes. They sought the counsel of neighbors with established vineyards, among them, Cactus Star Vineyard, Highland Hills Winery and Kohill Winery. The results? Passion, sharing knowledge of caring for the vineyard and expanded knowledge of Castelli Family Vineyards wine making empowering Mike & Nelson to take their hobby into turning their labors and grapes into some delightful award-winning wines. Today Mike and Nelson both have taken their passion for wines and the cooperative spirit of fellow winemakers to produce some delightful wines. Castelli Family Vineyards is a wonderful winery to visit for all you Red wine-lovers.

Mandeville Vineyards

Painting by Agata Zaborowski women enjoying wine

Larry Gilman is the hands-on owner and farmer of MANDEVILLE VINEYARDS. Larry had a vision for the vineyard when the location of his future vineyard was impassible, and almost impossible to get uphill behind the family house.
Larry is an actor and director and has won awards for directing THE ZOO STORY, with Woody Harrelson.

He has performed and directed in NY, and LA, and has been on Broadway, Off-Broadway, regional theater, television and movies. It is fair to say Larry is a  busy man. Yet Larry has a passion for life and to be in his life, rather than watching it simply passing him by. With no guarantee of success to follow his passion, Larry and his family have set off to make the best wine, with the most hands-on, and the best grapes, that the climate and soil will allow.
