The Rutherford Ranch Winery is on the site of the original Round Hill Winery started in the 1970’s by Ernie and Virginia Van Asperen. When the Van Asperen’s retired in 2000, Marko and Theo Zaninovich, long-time share holders with the Van Asperen family, acquired the winery. The estate vineyards were replanted with superior vines and the winery and Tasting Room have undergone significant renovations. Yet, the estate’s 100 year-old olive grove and unpretentious charm remain essentially unchanged.
