A look at Raymond Vineyards through the years is a historical journey of Napa Valley’s deep viticulture and winemaking roots.The Raymond family arrived in Napa Valley in 1933 and became connected to the Beringer family via marriage in 1936. Roy worked as winemaker for Beringer from 1933-1970, when in 1970, he and his two sons set out on their own with the 90-acre estate property in Rutherford where the winery is located.
