Darioush Winery, California
Joined by Chef Sean Massey
Born and raised in Iran, Darioush Khaledi’s fascination with wine was instilled
at an early age by his father’s winemaking efforts and the cultural history of
winemaking in Shiraz. He became a lifelong collector, seeking out old world
wines infused with tradition and energized by modern technique. Aspiring to the
ideals of the American Dream, he immigrated to America. He was an entrepreneur
determined to realize his dream, yet always eager to share his journey, his love of
wine borne from a rich heritage. In 1997, Darioush and his wife Shahpar founded
Darioush and began to realize a lifelong aspiration to share the art, architecture,
wine craftsmanship and culture that inspired their journey. Darioush, noted
for its Bordeaux-style estate wines, implements old world labor-intensive,
micro-vineyard management and new world state-of-the-art technology to
craft fine wines from its estates located in the appellations of Napa Valley, Mt.
Veeder and Oak Knoll.
