Discover the legacy of wine at the
Riboli Family of San Antonio Winery
It’s always a great time to visit
Paso Robles and the surrounding
areas, but there’s just something
about summer that makes this
time of year even more special.
And there’s no better destination to
visit than the beautiful and conve-
niently located bistro at the Riboli
Family of San Antonio Winery.
Family-owned, with the third
and fourth generations currently
overseeing the everyday opera-
tions, it’s one of the most highly
awarded wineries in California.
And the Paso Robles tasting room?
With outdoor patio seating, an
indoor bistro, and the gift shop,
this is the place to be! The décor
is stunning, timeless, and elegant,
and yet the ambiance throughout
is warm, approachable, and invit-
ing.
“We’ve always specialized in
the consumer, and our approach is
very comfortable yet educational.
We want people to learn,” fourth-
generation winemaker Anthony
Riboli said. “We want everyone
to feel welcomed, and that’s why
we offer many styles and types of
wines, from a big, bold cabernet
to a light sparkling semi-sweet
wine. Our selection, our ability to
cater to anyone and please all of
the different palates, sets us apart.
The bottom line is, we want our
guests to feel comfortable and have
a great time. That’s our philosophy
– it’s been our philosophy for 108
years, and it will continue to be our
philosophy.”
Invested in the Paso Robles
area for more than three decades,
the community is important to the
Riboli Family. Over the years, they
have had many accomplishments
with their vineyards and winery,
including attaining both organic
vineyard certifications for their Jada
Winery and Vineyard, and sustain-
able vineyard and winery certi-
fications through the California
Sustainable Winegrowing Alliance.
“We are all about being good
neighbors, using water wisely, and
being part of the Paso Robles com-
munity, Riboli said. “This is our
second home, and the longer we’ve
been involved in the area, the more
we’ve invested not only in resources
but our time.”
This sense of community was
established by Santo Cambianica
when he first started San Antonio
Winery in Los Angeles more than
108 years ago. His nephew Stefano
Riboli and his bride, Maddalena,
later owned the winery and passed
the family work ethic on to their
three children – Santo, Cathy, and
Steve. Today, the fourth generation
includes Anthony Riboli (head
winemaker), Chris Riboli, Dante
Riboli Colombatti, Jennifer Riboli

Converse, Blake Anderson, and
David Riboli, who hold various
positions within the company.
Stefano and Maddalena have both
passed on, leaving a legacy that will
endure for several more genera-
tions.
“Stefano was our family
patriarch, and we raise a toast to
his 97 years of a great life,” Riboli
said. “We all miss him, but we are
honored to carry on his incredible
legacy.” Maddalena passed away
shortly after her 102nd birthday.
The science and art of
winemaking
As a winemaker, Anthony Riboli
puts a lot of heart and history into
every batch of wine he produces.
