Los Gatos icon marks 60th year in Santa Cruz Mountains.
Winemaker Mitri Faravashi of David Bruce Winery enjoys a sample from one of the 2,400 barrels in its cellar. The Los Gatos winery recently announced that it’s been sold to Michigan-based Hillsdale College.
Bruce, a dermatologist, was smitten by a tasting he had done in college of a bottle of 1954 Richebourg Burgundy, and founded what became one of the most iconic names in Santa Cruz Mountains winemaking history. Bruce died on April 28, 2021, just shy of his 90th birthday. The arrangement came about due to Bruce’s relationship with another member of the Hillsdale board, who was a big fan of the winery and an avid collector.
His first job was at Mirassou Winery in San Jose as an enologist, working for renowned winemaker Tom Stutz, a longtime San Jose resident. After Gallo bought the Mirassou name and inventory in 2002, the winery became La Rochelle and moved to Livermore. “At one point, he came to me and said, ‘Can you please make some wines I can drink in my lifetime?’” Faravashi recalls.The delightful craft bar and kitchen Roses on Adeline opens in Berkeley
