100th Year Kick-Off Celebration: Blessing of the Winery and Barrel Tasting

January 11th, 2025

Join us as we kick off our 100th anniversary celebrations with a heartfelt Blessing of the Winery and an exclusive Barrel Tasting event. This special occasion commemorates 1925, the year Emilio and Emilia Guglielmo purchased the ranch in Morgan Hill that became the foundation of their winemaking legacy. From those early days of crafting wine in their home’s basement for family and close friends to building the first winery building after Prohibition ended in 1933, our journey has been one of passion, perseverance, and an unwavering dedication to the art of winemaking.

The event begins with the Blessing of the Winery at 1:30 PM, a meaningful tribute to our history and the community that has supported us throughout the years. Following this special moment, join us from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM for a Barrel Tasting, where you’ll have the rare opportunity to sample wines in their early stages and experience the artistry of winemaking up close.

Celebrate this milestone with us as we honor the past, embrace the present, and toast to the future of Guglielmo Winery. This is the first of many unforgettable events in our year-long centennial celebration. Salute!
