Meet Steve Tonella the wine-maker of S.R. Tonella. From an early age, he worked in the vineyards with his father and grandfather. He enjoyed the hot sun and helping in the vineyard by suckering vines (removing unwanted shoots), tying, training, and irrigating formed his early encounters in vineyards. The dream of cultivating Rutherford wine never left, even while traveling Europe and living in Italy and Spain, where he was in a sales leadership position for a high-tech company. Finally, after working across three continents, the time had come to resurrect the dream of producing Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon into reality: The 2010 was the ‘first’ of many vintages to come.
