FABIANO RAMACI

Our winemaker, Fabiano, is currently the only winemaker in California crafting Amarone style wine. We often hear the question, “What is Amarone style wine?” After harvesting and prior to fermentation, grapes are placed on drying racks, stacked and left to dry for 120 days in a Zen-like environment. This method, known as Appassimento, dates back to ancient Rome. In keeping with the traditional method, the grapes are crushed in January, followed by an extended fermentation and maceration (30 days) to preserve freshness before barreling.

a dream to create

wines that balance old world and new

Fabiano Ramaci, Winemaker and Chef, has been surrounded by wine his entire life. His love of wine and food began at his family’s restaurant, La Traviata, an iconic San Francisco restaurant and a favorite dining room of the opera stars. Fabiano’s dream has always been to create wines in a method that shares a balance of old world and new world, while maintaining the sophistication and elegance of the wine. He is proud to be the only winemaker in California making wine in the Amarone tradition.
