Grgich Hills Estate was founded in 1977 by Miljenko "Mike" Grgich and Austin Hills of the Hills Bros. Coffee Company after the 1973 Chateau Montelena Chardonnay Mike crafted won the history-making 1976 Paris Tasting, beating the best wines of France.

Today, Grgich Hills Estate remains family-owned and operated, passionately devoted to the art of winemaking and regenerative farming. Our 100% estate-grown vineyards are Certified Regenerative Organic through the Regenerative Organic Alliance (ROA), a leading force in the Regenerative Agriculture movement worldwide. Referred to as "Organic Plus,” regenerative farming is a science-driven approach focused on no-till soil management, building organic matter to sustain microbial life, incorporating livestock and biodiversity, and caring for people who work in the fields and winery. It is a key component of combating climate change and reducing greenhouse gas pollution. Regenerative farming also enables winemaking with minimal intervention and wild yeast fermentation, creating elegant, balanced, and complex wines with a distinct sense of place.

We care deeply about making world-class wines that help build a better future for ourselves and for generations to come, regenerating the earth and cultivating peace. We are dedicated to maintaining a safe, friendly, healthy environment to ensure employee well-being by building loyalties, pride, trust, and mutual respect. Our values come from Mike Grgich, whose father said: "Every day, do your best, learn something new, and make a friend." We all live these values daily, personally, professionally, and passionately. This is an opportunity to be part of a winery that cares about making the world a better place, one friend at a time.
