Michael Pozzan Winery is owned and operated by Michael and Mary Ann Pozzan, both natives of California. Michael was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, but spent his summer months with his grandparents on their 35 acre vineyard estate in Sonoma County. Michael's grandfather purchased the land after WWII and planted Zinfandel grapes, which he sold to local wineries. He always made sure that he retained a portion of the grapes to make his own wine. With roots extending to Piedmont, Italy, Michael's family has been in the wine business since the mid 1800s, and still owns the original property that Michael's great grandfather planted over100 years ago.

Winemaker Greg Brewer’s primary goal is to capture and convey the essence of the sustainably farmed estate vineyards with clarity and honesty. He believes that each winery should reflect its unique style while embracing the transparency of their specific appellations.

"This objective aims to provide the most authentic voice of our estates," Brewer explains. "While the three labels bear my name, the final product is truly a testament to our entire team. Their dedication to every aspect of the process informs, motivates, and inspires our work."

As both the winemaker and founder, Greg Brewer emphasizes the collaborative spirit that drives the winery's success.

Joel Gott Wines

Joel Gott was born to make wine. His grandfather was winemaker and president of Inglenook in the 1960s and 1970s while his father, Cary Gott, is the founder of Montevina and continues to consult for wineries such as D.R. Stephens. In addition to Joel's uncanny blending ability, he has privileged access to many of the best and as yet undiscovered fruit sources in the Napa Valley. Joel Gott wines are therefore remarkable values, offering gobs of classic California fruit, good structure and excellent balance. Of course, Joel is also the proud proprietor of Gott's Roadside, Napa Valley's red hot retro-chic "hamburger joint" on Highway 29, and most recently, in San Francisco as well. Robert Parker once proclaimed a meal at Taylor's one of the finest meals of the year in the Wine Advocate! Not open to the public.

His focus is on allowing the unique character of the vineyard site to shine through in every bottle of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
