Patrice McNealy's Company Details
When Tony and Herta "H.B." Peju relocated to Rutherford from Los Angeles over 30 years ago, they brought with them a vision of building a winery, an unwavering work ethic, and two young daughters who soaked in the couple's entrepreneurial spirit. Established in 1983, Peju Winery is dedicated to crafting exceptional wines from organic and sustainably farmed estate vineyards in the Napa Valley. Still family owned and operated, Peju Winery has transformed over the past 34 years from a simple grape growing venture into two landmark wineries celebrated for elegant, complex, and balanced wines. The Rutherford Estate tasting room resides in a 50 foot tower built in 2003 that was envisioned by Tony Peju even before he purchased the estate property. The newest project in Los Carneros, Calmére Estate launched in 2019 to be an eco-friendly destination specializing Burgundian varietals like Pinot noir and Chardonnay.More than the beautiful setting, year after year head winemaker Sara Fowler delivers award-winning wines. In addition to constantly evolving winemaking practices, Peju has continued to expand their green initiatives, which include an array of 720 solar panels at the Rutherford Estate, which supply ~35% of the winery's energy. Peju currently sustainably farm all 232 planted acres of estate vineyards in Rutherford, Oak Knoll, Calistoga and Pope Valley.
