With The Start Of The Prohibition, The Wine Business Diminished Dramatically. Vincent Rizzo, First-generation Rizzo Owner, Had The Forethought To Buy The Winery During The Prohibition From The Dwindling Partnership And Continue Production Of Sacramental Wine And Grape Juice Guaranteed To Ferment By The End Of The Road. The Rizzo Family Moving From Sicily To The Land Of Opportunity In 1905, Vincent Made A Living Building Fruit Boxes In Detroit. An Opportunity Arose To Move To Tijuana, Across The Border From San Diego, And Open A Few Bars. On Visiting The Bernardo Land Grant For A Hunting Trip, He Noticed The Winery Was For Sale. Vincent Rizzo Bought The Bernardo Winery From The Original Five Partners In 1927. The Valley That The Winery Is Located In Was Covered In Vineyard, Not A House Was In Sight And The Closest Town Was Escondido. 1970 Bernardo Winery Historicgrapeconveyorproducing Over 150,000 Gallons Of Wine In The Late 1940′s, The Bernardo Winery Was A Major Wine Supplier Of San Diego County. As Well As Wine, The Winery Produced Cold Pressed Virgin Olive Oil From The Many Olive Trees That Were Located On The Property, Supplying Much Of The Tuna Canneries In Downtown San Diego. Ross Rizzo Took Over The Family Winery From His Father, Vincent In 1962. With Much Ambition, Ross Has Turned The Winery Into What It Is Today, A Winery And Destination Rich In History And Old World Hospitality And Charm. With The Passing Of Ross In 2008, The Family Tradition Was Passed To Ross Rizzo Jr. Who Is Continuing The Family Business And Increasing The Wine Production In An Ever Growing San Diego Wine Region.
