NAMES THAT STAND FOR FINE WINE
CHEERS, FROM THE SCOTTO FAMILY
My grandfather, Anthony Sr., started his wine career in 1940, selling gallon jugs of his father’s homemade red wine from a pushcart in their Brooklyn neighborhood. Twenty-three years later he moved the family to California, just in time for the 1963 harvest. He bought a winery about 40 miles from San Francisco where his sons learned to make wine.

We will always remember Sunday night dinners at his winery home, when he passed along the family history, values and winemaking standards. He also handed down two names that appear throughout our family tree: Anthony & Dominic. Our wines, including North Coast Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon, are tributes to the family members that carried our names before us.
I'm proud to carry on my father’s name, Anthony Scotto II (A2), as well as my grandfather’s, Anthony Scotto, Sr. (A1 if you will). Our family and our traditions have made our wine business a success, and it wouldn't be possible without my brothers Paul Anthony Scotto (Winemaker) and Michael Anthony Scotto (Production Manager). We carry on the names but the authenticity, family values and great wine is what we want to share.
