Mirassou Winery and Tasting Room

The Mirassou winemaking traditions began in 1854 when Pierre Pellier planted his French vine cuttings in the fertile Santa Clara Valley soils. In 1881, Pierre’s eldest daughter Henrietta married neighboring French vintner Pierre Huste Mirassou. The two Pierre’s joined forces to produce some of California’s best early wines. Their descendants are still making first-class wines.Only 20 acres of the original Pellier planting remain surrounding the Mirassou winery. Most of their wines are produced from grapes grown at their Monterey County vineyards.
