Ridge Vineyards boasts an incredible array of head-trained, old-vine sites from which they make wines of signature terroir, finesse, and class. Here's how the winery describes the Guadagni vineyard: "The Guadagni family has been farming in the Dry Creek Valley since the late 1800’s when great-grandfather Raffaelo Guadagni settled in the upper part of Dry Creek Valley. Raffaelo’s son Fred moved onto the current property with his family in 1941. At a very young age Fred’s two sons, Don and Joe Guadagni, worked many hours at his side, as he taught them the skills necessary to produce the grapes that make the wines of Dry Creek Valley so desirable. The love of the land has been passed down for generations with the fourth generation, Bill Guadagni, joining Father Don Guadagni and Uncle Joe Guadagni in farming as well."
