and wine business degrees from California Polytechnic State
University in San Luis Obispo. This experience in both small and
large wineries has equipped Briana with a unique perspective
on maintaining consistency of handcrafted premium wines in
ever-increasing quantities.
Devoted fans and curious newcomers can taste the Donati
Family Vineyard wines for themselves at the popular tasting
room. The three-story building resembles a European chateau
and is nestled in the hills of Templeton, offering picnic grounds
and bocce ball courts. Appointments are encouraged, especially
if you're bringing a crowd, but there will always be a warm
welcome waiting for anyone who wants to try some of the best
wine on California's central coast.
