Niki Wente is 5^th Generation Winegrower in Livermore Valley and part of a family that made history in the industry. The Wente Clone is just one part of their claim to fame. The fact that the family has operated the winery for so long shows the power of family in wine. I visited Niki at the winery a few weeks ago and learned how her dedication to the Wente team is all about passion. And the family continues to grow.

One of the most enjoyable traits of Livermore Valley is the lack of heavy traffic. Wineries are only about fifteen minutes away from each other but each, very individual. 3 Steves Winery is a must see when you visit. Of the original 3 Steves Steve Ziganti is the remaining “Steve” fully involved with the winery. Affordable wines and nice folks…whats not to like?
