Gino was earning a master's degree in sociology at
Washington State
University and making wine in his dorm Gino and Carol became familiar with the Paso Robles area during travels up and down the coast between Washington and Ventura County. In 1977, with brother Joe, they purchased the Arbor Road site of their vineyard and winery. After much consideration, the Peratas chose this hilltop site over others because of the sunny climate cooled by Pacific breezes. The Peratas' initial plantings included
Zinfandel for Gino and
Joe's father who loved his 'Zingarella.' Their 31 acre
vineyard,
established in 1980, is completely hand-worked
and hand-harvested. From the beginning the Peratas followed the philosophy of Gino and Joe's father, who believed in stressing the plants to produce lower crop yields for the most intense fruit. "Buoni Amici" means "good friends" and Gino, Joe and Carol are the best of friends and extend that friendship to all those who visit the winery.
