History

Samuele Sebastiani, a laborer, came to America from Tuscany and began making wine in Sonoma in 1904.[1] Samuele Sebastiani built the business from one 501-gallon redwood vat to an operation of millions of bottles per year with multiple varietals. His grandchildren could not agree on the future of the business and sold in 2008.[1]
