Vision and timing are everything.

If I’ve learned anything over a lifetime spent in vineyards, it’s that timing is everything.

My great grandfather Gaetano bought the Regusci property in 1932, my grandfather Angelo ran the ranch and held onto it through the toughest of times. My dad grew up there with his brothers and sisters, he is the youngest. My dad took over the ranch operations after high school. I have spent decades between its rows. We always knew this piece of prime Stags Leap District land was special, but after I earned a degree in Wine Business and spent time in winemaking, farming, sales, and hospitality, I realized just how special.

As I watched my husband Matt Hardin farm wildly valuable slivers of Napa Valley, as I developed a friendship with winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown, and as I lived in the world of upper-echelon winemaking, I learned something else—the Regusci property still has a story to tell. My story.

The timing couldn’t have been better. We had a top vineyard manager, a coveted winemaker, and a couple carefully selected plots of exceptional terroir. We just needed a connector. By braiding these threads together, I’m crafting my own narrative. Taking something historic and elevating it further. Making a legacy for my three boys. And revealing my family’s land in the way only I can.
