It is giving me a great satisfaction, because I had the notion that we could make great wines equal to the greatest wines in the world, and everybody said it was impossible.

I've always wanted to improve on the idea of living well, In moderation, wine is good for you - mentally, physically, and spiritually.

There are a lot of people with a lot of money, and I'm amazed they don't understand what a great pleasure it can be to give.

Whether I played marbles, whether I played football or slam anything else, I wanted to excel.

As I traveled the world over, I traveled everywhere, and I learned so much.

We definitely need to get the excitement back.

My brother and I had saved $15,000 by working many years nailing fruit crates together.

Later, at Stanford University, I thought I'd become a lawyer or businessman, but my father came to me and said he thought there was a big future in the fine-wine business.

Critics have done the wine industry a lot of good overall.

Once I was able to take care of myself and my children, I then wanted to share.
