MEET THE MAKERS

Classically-trained and celebrated winemaker Bob Blue broke boundaries in 2013 when he began aging Zinfandel in bourbon barrels. The resulting wine’s depth of flavor and complexity would become the first chapter of 1000 Stories, California’s first bourbon barrel-aged wine.

Our new head winemaker, Sebastian Donoso, represents our original pioneering spirit with the future of 1000 Stories. He brings his decades of experience, expertise in biodynamic farming, a balanced, detailed and focused approach to winemaking and a clear vision for our path ahead.
