About the Winemaker
After meeting at UC Davis, Dan and Jacqueline Person worked around the world, then around California. These experiences informed their perspectives on winemaking. Dan worked for Schramsberg Vineyards for 3 years, making traditional sparkling wines from California grapes. Based on that experience, Dan decided there was a need for a new interpretation of California sparkling wine. Jacqueline was concurrently making still wines from a variety of terroirs across the Golden State, terroirs that have inspired the vineyard selections for CARBONISTE. In 2021, Mara Ambrose joined our team bringing years of experience working with sparkling producers in the UK and 5 years of making bubbles for Schramsberg. She still moonlights crafting rare small lot Sparkling Creatures with Forlorn Hope in the Sierra Foothills.
