The history and tradition of the Filippi winegrowing family continues and flourishes today with each new vintage as 4th gerneration Joseph 'J.P.' Filippi and his son Jared build upon over 86 years in historic Cucamonga-Guasti.
J.P. is very active in their community, serving with many different organizations including California Farm Bureau, San Antonio Community Hospital, The LeRoy Haynes Family Center, and the Wine Institute. The winery has been involved with the Rancho Cucamonga Chamber of Commerce's Grape Harvest Festival since 1981.
Since 1994, the Filippis have revitalized old vineyards and undertaken new vine plantings. They continue working to restore the historic Ellena Bros./Regina Winery with the City of Rancho Cucamonga.
On March 31st 1995 the United States Treasury Department's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (BATF) ruled Cucamonga Valley an approved viticulture area ( View Appellation ). This was the result of a petition written and filed by Gino L. Filippi on behalf of our winery and other vintners and growers in the area. This new law enabled wineries use of the words Cucamonga Valley on their wine labels utilizing at least 85% Cucamonga grapes.
The Filippis have assembled a top-flight vinification (winemaking) team, headed by Director of Winemaking Joseph P. Filippi, Winemaker Kristina Filippi, Cellar Master Jared P. Filippi, Dr. Fred S. Nury - Emeritus Professor of Enology and Food Science California State University Fresno and retired vintner-winemaker Rene' Biane. With this advanced level of winemaking expertise, Joseph Filippi Winery & Vineyards has placed Rancho Cucamonga back on the winemaking map.
Joseph Filippi wines are the result of a craftsmanship derived from tradition, passion, skill and artistry. The fifth-generation winery is establishing itself among California's finest producers, while remaining true to the family's heritage of excellence in Cucamonga Valley winemaking.
Joseph Filippi limited production releases include Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petite Sirah, Alicante Bouschet, Mourvédre, Muscat Canelli, Syrah, Chardonnay, White Riesling, Zinfandel, Orange Muscat, and Riesling, as well as aged sherries and specialty ports including the popular Fondante Ciello 'chocolate'. The Filippi's also present barrel select Barrel Blends.
