So Cal has a rich wine history. San Antonio Winery is smack dab in the middle of it.
The California wine trade didn’t start in Napa, Sonoma, or Mendocino; it started it in Southern California in the 1700’s. Many Italian immigrants game to the Cucamonga area from the Lombardy region…not to make wine but to cut stone.
Founded in 1929, San Antonio Winery is currently the only licensed winery in Los Angeles. Amazing history and story. My old friend Santo Riboli sat with me to discuss the trek of this famed company and family.
