The Saini family are fifth generation farmers who have been farming this land for over 100 years. The story in America began in 1908, when Michele Saini came to the United States from Genova, Italy. Like many immigrants he arrived at Ellis Island and journeyed to San Francisco where he would make his living as a garbage man for some time, driving a team of horses through the streets of San Francisco. Michele was a farmer and winemaker in his home country and sought to make is real passion a reality here in America as well. In 1917 his passion became a reality when Michele bought his first ranch in the Dry Creek Valley with his brother-in-law John Cuneo. The land they purchased produced pears, apples, prunes, walnuts, and wine grapes, and sold the grapes to many wineries in Sonoma County.  In 1934, Cuneo & Saini purchased another ranch in Alexander Valley. They built a solid reputation as grape growers, selling to many wineries in Sonoma County.  The second and third generations of the families continued farming. It wasn’t until the 4th generation, when Mike Saini fulfilled a dream of making wine under his own label from grapes grown on his family’s land. In 2008 he launched Saini Vineyards. Today, the 5th generation is learning the ways of the land and continuing the family’s legacy.
