About Gustavo Thrace Winery
Gustavo Wine (Gustavo Thrace Winery) is the namesake label of legendary Napa Valley winemaker Gustavo Brambila, one of the original Chateau Montelena team whose 1976 Paris-tasting Chardonnay put Napa on the world stage (depicted in the film 'Bottle Shock'). The family winery's downtown Napa tasting room at 1021 McKinstry Street (Oxbow District) pours estate wines from Coombsville, Sonoma Mountain, Oak Knoll, Petaluma Gap, and the Sierra Foothills, with indoor tastings and a heated outdoor patio by appointment. Private tastings with Gustavo himself are available.
