Robledo Family Winery

What Robledo Family Winery does

Robledo Family Winery is a family-owned, fourth-generation California winery founded in 1997 by Reynaldo and María de La Luz Robledo, recognized as the first US winery established by Mexican migrant vineyard workers on their own land. The company cultivates more than a dozen estate vineyards spanning 350+ acres across Napa, Sonoma, and Lake Counties, giving it control over grape supply across the Los Carneros, Napa Valley, Sonoma Valley, and Lake County AVAs. Production runs through Robledo Cellars, an in-house custom crush facility in Sonoma opened in 2007 that also serves external private-label clients.

The business sells a full portfolio of estate wines (Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, Tempranillo, Merlot Rosé, red blends, sparkling, and dessert wines), plus adjacent products such as Gold Medal extra virgin olive oil, port, jam, and branded merchandise. Distribution is anchored on a direct-to-consumer model: a WineDirect-powered e-commerce storefront, the estate tasting room in Carneros (operating since 2002) offering four structured tasting experiences priced $40–$60 plus group and corporate options, and the four-tier La Familia Wine Club (Padrinos, Tios, Primos, Amigos) delivering 3–12 bottles three to four times per year with 15–30% member discounts. A secondary trade channel supplies regional grocers (Safeway, Whole Foods, Sonoma Market) and restaurants through the Selección Clásica and Selección Reserva lines, while hospitality is extended via the on-site Robledo County Home Airbnb, events programming, and on-site cheese pairings.

Operationally, the company is led by CEO Everardo Robledo (fourth-generation winemaker) with Vineyard Manager Jenaro Robledo (Napa Valley College Viticulture, 2000) overseeing sustainable farming across all estate sites; California Sustainable Winegrowing certification was achieved in 2020. The winery is privately held by the Robledo family with no disclosed institutional investment, and all nine siblings of the founder generation contribute across vineyard management, winemaking, sales, and operations.
