“We firmly believe in conscientious stewardship of the land, and hope to do the Ojai Alisal Vineyard brand proud.”

IN THE VINEYARD

We’re John Tedesco and Lisa Cole Tedesco, the new owners of Ojai Alisal Vineyard. Our new passion and adventure is Ojai Alisal Vineyard. We hope to carry on the Ojai Alisal winemaking tradition from the founders, Bruce and Daniel, who did an amazing job with the development of the 3.5 acre vineyard.

Ojai Alisal’s gently rolling south-facing hills are graced by warm days, cool nights, and a strong afternoon breeze. In 2009 with the help of expert consultant Bob Tobias, two acres were planted with blocks of Viognier, Grenache, Syrah, and Malbec varietals. Over time, we have added Grenache Blanc and Mourvèdre.
