The Lineage Book Launch

 

On July 31, 2021, we launched Lineage: Life and Love and Six Generations in California Wine at The Lineage Collection. A video commemorating the event is just above.

“Lineage” is a book about one family’s history in the wine business and a history of my winegrowing region.
