San Rucci
San Rucci produces wines from California grapes with a focus on Italian and French varieties. The winery's Montepulciano, made from the Tuscan red grape, represents its core expression—a wine that has drawn attention from Wine Enthusiast. A Cabernet Franc rounds out the portfolio, the Loire Valley varietal showing the winery's interest in classic European grapes adapted to California conditions. Benvenuta, crafted from Zibibbo, the white grape native to Sicily, offers a different register. The three wines span red, alternative red, and white categories, suggesting a winery oriented toward varietal purity and Old World reference points rather than regional blending conventions.
