Piper Sonoma was founded in 1980 by the Marquis d’Aulan family, direct descendants of the Piper family. Recognizing Sonoma as a great growing region for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, and believing in its terroir, the vision was to produce world-class sparkling wines in the New World, using old -world wine making techniques. Nearly forty years later, the Piper Sonoma winemaking team continues to realize that vision and handcrafts premium sparkling wines under the guidance of long-time winemaker Keith Hock.
