| Ross started his
career in the wine industry in 1994 at Stonestreet Winery. In 1997,
after three harvests under Steve Test and Mike Westrick, Ross moved
to Limerick Lane Cellars, an estate Zinfandel producer in Healdsburg.
A British citizen, Ross has an Honors degree in Agricultural Economics,
from the University of Newcastle upon Tyne, England.
Ross spent many years as a safari guide in
Africa (where he met his wife, a Detroit native) and subsequently
managed an international adventure travel company in Berkeley,
CA.
Ross's formal education and his experience
fixing anything that had wheels in Africa fits well with the small
5000 case winery. Under owner Michael Collins, Ross has flourished,
running an efficient, clean cellar and directing wine operations
and sales.
Ross is involved with the Vintage Hills Tasting
Group, featuring wines and winemakers from Sonoma and Napa Counties.
