For over 125 years, the histories of the California wine country and Concannon Vineyard have been intrinsically linked. Four generations of family involvement has a rich history of firsts:
A Founding Family of California Wines – Over 127 years as the first successful Irish-American winery in the U.S. in 1883.
Bucking the trend by varietally labeling Petite Sirah, before any other U.S. winery with vintage 1961.
Pioneering clones 7 and 8, the bedrocks of California Cabernet Sauvignon in the 1970s, replanting many of Napa Valley vineyards.
With four generations of family involvement, Concannon Vineyard's pioneering contributions to winemaking have positioned us as a landmark winery with an enduring commitment to creating outstanding, award winning wines. We invested
millions to restore our historic winery and revitalize our estate vineyards, ensuring that future generations continue to enjoy the world-class wines envisioned by our founder James Concannon over 125 years ago.
