Our vineyard
Nestled on the scenic slopes of Sonoma Mountain, Rejuvenate Vineyards embodies a blend of tradition and innovation. Our story began with four acres of Syrah vines planted in 2003. Inspired by the property’s potential and beauty, we embarked on a mission to cultivate a diverse and thriving vineyard.
At Rejuvenate Vineyards, we are passionate about crafting exceptional wines that reflect harmony with nature. Our estate features Syrah and Cabernet Franc, complemented by roughly 100 olive trees, a variety of fruit trees and vegetable beds, and fragrant lavender bushes. Each element of our farm contributes to a holistic approach to winemaking, where sustainability and quality go hand in hand.
We invite you to be part of our journey and share in the richness of our wines at Rejuvenate Vineyards.
Tony is a renowned neuroscience and immunology professor at Stanford University, where his groundbreaking research on brain aging has earned him international recognition. His work, including the discovery that young circulatory blood factors can rejuvenate aging brains, inspired the founding and naming of Rejuvenate Vineyards.
In 2021, Tony and Christina discovered their perfect vineyard property on Sonoma Mountain Road. Their passion for gardening and nature led them to embark on a new journey of winemaking. Today, their wines reflect a deep love for the land and a commitment to sustainability, tradition, and family.
Tony and Christina’s journey is rooted in a shared love for nature, family, and the land. Tony grew up in Switzerland’s Jura mountains, tending the garden alongside his family, while Christina grew up in the eastern Alps, surrounded by farms and alpine meadows. Their paths crossed in Bern, where Tony was pursuing his PhD and Christina was working as a nurse.
