Winemaking Philosophy:
Ca’ Momi [Kah-Moh-Mee]
(translation: “House of Momi” in Italian)

The name Ca’ Momi (House of Momi) honors our roots. Our property in Veneto, Italy once belonged to Momi dea Bionda, a hardworking farmer who became a local legend for his obsessive devotion to his family, farm and vineyards and for the rifle he would easily fire to defend them. To this day the house is still known as the house of Momi, and his spirit still fiercely protects it.

We share Momi’s values of authenticity, passion, loyalty, dedication and obsession with quality. It is why we chose to pay homage to his legacy in the name of our Napa Valley winery. We proudly share our Italian heritage, and strive each day to honor these values within ourselves, in how we do business and how we make wine.
