Comments: Foppiano Vineyards is Sonoma County's oldest continually owned family winery, founded in 1896 by the Foppiano family. Please visit us in Healdsburg, California. Taste our award-winning wines, and take a stroll about the estate where we have made wine for over 100 years. Every winery has its trademark. At Foppiano Vineyards, it's Petite Sirah, which has graced our vineyard for almost 100 years. We have a block of Petite Sirah that was planted in 1991, replacing an older vineyard of the same grape. We have 140 acres of estate vineyards with many varietals represented, and we produce 30,000 cases of those wines per years. Petite Sirah, our flagship wine, is distributed in all 50 states.
