"John Anthony Vineyards was founded on three important principles: Precision winegrowing and stewardship of the land; meticulous winemaking that celebrates a sense of place; and our commitment to heritage and community—learning from those before us and paying it forward." -John Anthony Truchard, Founder

John learned the art of growing grapes to produce wine from his father and other pioneering Napa Valley vintners when Napa Valley was just starting to take its place on the world wine stage. From an early age, he worked alongside and for some of Napa Valley's viticultural icons.

As a young man, he put his passion and experience to work by starting his own vineyard management business. John sought small and previously undiscovered parcels of select land throughout the Napa Valley to practice his terroir-driven style of viticulture. In the late 1990s, John began planting his vineyards and in 2006 released the first wine under the John Anthony label. His signature Napa Valley wines are the confluence of respect for heritage, precision winegrowing, and meticulous winemaking.

Today, the John Anthony Vineyards portfolio presents wines across a diverse range of Napa Valley's American Viticultural Areas, single-vineyard sites, noble varietals, and exceptional library vintages.
