Summary

Murrieta’s Well is a Livermore Valley wine estate defined by its distinctive blended wines, stunning location, and a rich heritage. Boutique and family-owned, it remains one of California’s original wine estates, and the property has been growing grapes since 1884. Murrieta's Well wines are produced from grapes grown on the winery’s sustainably farmed 500-acre estate vineyard. Set in the heart of the Livermore Valley American Viticultural Area (AVA), as well as the greater San Francisco Bay AVA, Murrieta’s Well is located 35 miles east of San Francisco. The site is located on a natural water source at the base of the Mocho Canyon. The legendary gold rush era bandito Joaquin Murrieta is known to have frequented the artesian well in front the winery. The name Murrieta’s Well pays homage to the pioneering spirit surrounding his folklore. In 1990, Murrieta’s Well proprietor and fourth generation winegrower Phil Wente and Sergio Traverso partnered together to revive the winery. Today, Phil’s daughter, fifth generation winegrower, Jordan Wente leads as Brand Manager.
