Winemaker and founder Ted Kizor fell in love with Syrah early and caught the Riesling bug while working harvests at Clonakilla in Australia, of all places. Currently, Ted works as the winemaker for Dunn Vineyards and has previously worked at Ridge Vineyards, Clonakilla, Joseph Swan, Stephane Ogier, and Captain Vineyards—all benchmark Syrah producers.
