Spelletich Family Wine Company, established in 1994, is a fully family-operated winery located in the Crusher District of Napa, California. Founded by Barbara and Timothy Spelletich, along with their daughter Kristen, the winery emphasizes a motto of “Food, Family & Friends.” The winery faced a significant setback in 2000 when a fire destroyed much of their early vintages. Barbara, the winemaker, has extensive experience in European winemaking, while Tim has a background in the culinary arts. Spelletich produces a variety of wines, including Chardonnay, Zinfandel, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and their signature Bodog Red, which reflects their Hungarian heritage. The winery sources grapes from Napa Valley and other California regions, allowing for a diverse selection of wines. Visitors to Spelletich can enjoy tastings in their welcoming salon, which features wines that are typically 7-10 years old, providing a unique opportunity to sample aged varietals. The winery also offers educational tours of its facilities and is known for its affordable pricing. The Spelletichs also provide custom crush services to other small producers, enhancing their role in the local wine community.
