Per Bacco is a producer of premium wine based in the Edna Valley. Long time friends Marco Rizzo, owner of Café Roma Restaurant in San Luis Obispo and Craig Shannon, a third generation vineyard manager, had long spoken about making wine together. They had dreams of putting together the best possible fruit with solid winemaking in order to produce wines of distinction.
Opportunity struck when an older chardonnay vineyard in the southern portion of the Edna Valley came up for lease, and they jumped at the chance to farm it. The fruits of their labor and dreams payed off when their 2000 Edna Valley Chardonnay scored 90 points in the Wine Enthusiast. They branched out with their next two varietals Pinot Noir and Pinot Grigio. Within a few years they had been rated 90 pts. on all three of their first varietals.
Currently Per Bacco Cellars produces Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio and Pinot Noir and limited production runs of Sangiovese, Syrah, Petite Sirah and a dry Rose'.
