In 1893, newlyweds Edoardo and Angela Seghesio purchased their new home in Alexander Valley. As winemaker for the most prominent winery in Sonoma County, Edoardo recognized great vineyard potential surrounding the modest home. In 1895, he planted the ”Home Ranch” and began a lineage of four generations of grape growers in Sonoma County. This vineyard, in addition to producing quintessential Zinfandel, has long been the source for subsequent plantings of Seghesio Zinfandel.
