Emilio and Emilia Guglielmo immigrated from Italy in 1909, purchased 10-acres of land in Morgan Hill, and planted their first row of grapevines. In 1925, the Guglielmo’s began producing red wine blends which they delivered in casks to their neighbors during prohibition, and later on a larger wholesale scale. The winery has evolved over the years along with the California wine industry which had only 11 vineyards when the Guglielmo’s started. Today, Guglielmo Winery produces over 40,000 cases of wine annually, offers a wide variety of blended and non-blended wines, boasts a flourishing Wine Club and manages an event center that holds hundreds of events every year. Although the winery footprint and business model have changed over the last 100 years, the winery is still a family run business with the 4th and 5th generations currently at the helm. Cheers to another 100 years of Guglielmo wine!
