With his crew, Jose oversees the daily vineyard operations for the 150 acres of estate vineyards. Jose was delighted to be reunited with his old friend Jon Engelskirger, when Jon joined the winery as winemaker. |

Lynn Thompson Office & Sales Administrator The first person that you may talk to at the winery is Lynn. She handles all the sales orders, wine allocations and inventory transfers among our various warehouses. In her spare time Lynn likes to play with her two jumping jack "Rascals" (Russell) Terriers. |

Dennis Fagundes Consumer Relations Manager A Northern California native, Dennis joined the Turnbull clan in June as the new Consumer Relations Manager. After graduating with a degree in Political Science from Sonoma State University, Dennis pursued a career in public service, first with the Department of Public Works and later working political campaigns. Finding the day-to-day business of politics less than appealing, he leaped head first into the food and beverage industry, managing restaurants in both Sonoma and Napa Valley. For the last six years, Dennis managed visitor center operations for Trinchero Family Estates, most recently at their Folie a Deux facility near St. Helena. Dennis enjoys sailing, a good game of petangue, chasing a little white ball around the golf course in his never-ending struggle to break 100, and of course food, wine and the company of good friends. |
