When Gasparé Indelicato immigrated from a
small village in Italy to California it was only natural that he
would do the one thing he knew he could do better than anything
else.
His father, grandfather, and several
generations before them grew wine grapes, and that would be the
life for him. He planted the first grapes for Delicato Family Vineyards
in the spring of 1924.
The second generation inherited a commitment to
quality, building a tradition as a leading supplier to other wineries.
As a trusted provider of fine California wines, Delicato Family
Vineyards gained the name by which it is still referred within the
industry
"The Winemaker's Winemaker."
