~ about us ~
We've been enjoying winemaking since 1994 and creating incredible wine.
The Pinot Noir Winery has been a family-owned winery since its founding in the late 1990s. The family of winemakers have passed down their winemaking knowledge and techniques from generation to generation, creating a winemaking tradition that continues to this day. The Pinot Noir Winery was founded by John Smith and his wife, Mary Smith.
John was a farmer and a winemaker, and Mary was a cook and baker. Together they recognized the potential of winemaking in the area and set out to create a winery that would produce high-quality wines.
The Smiths built the winery on a piece of land that John had purchased in the late 1990s. He cleared the land, planted the vines, and built the winery from the ground up. He also developed a unique method of winemaking that would become the hallmark of the Pinot Noir Winery. Now it is recognized by all wineries around the world.
Our winemaking method is based on European methods. We use natural fermentation methods and barrels to age the wine and indigenous grape varieties to make the wines, which gave them a unique flavor profile.

Discoverer
John Smith
John Smith opened his interest in wine more than fourteen years ago working at a farm and in a wine bar.
His urge to get closer to the action led him to Texas where he was inspired by the best winery owners and winemaking professionals while building and managing their wine programs for several local restaurants.
Smith decided to deepen his interest in winemaking industry and gained a Certificate in Viticulture from the Santa Rosa Junior College. Next he pursued a degree in Enology, Plant Science, and Chemistry, and gained winemaking experience while also experimenting with his favorite wine in his own backyard project with his wife, Mary. Finally, he embarked upon an extensive search throughout the area for a suitable location to start a commercial vineyard. That was a foundation of the Pinot Noir Winery.
