Wine & SCU Winemaking Families: Sharing the Fruits of Their Labors

The real roots of California wine-making are based at Santa Clara University, in which Santa Clara's extensive alumni list of great wine-making families is very impressive. In this program, meet the Franzia family, prominent SCU alumni winemakers (Bronco Winery). They will present their experiences in the wine industry - current and historical. Tastings and evaluation of their wines will be incorporated in the session, led by a certified sommelier.
