- Description:
- Vineyards and wineries around the world that create authentic, flavorful, high-quality wine have three important things in common.
First, there's a family – either related literally or through their mutual love of wine – who have committed themselves completely to the hard work of grape growing and wine making. Second, they have a historical vision of what the vineyard and winery can become that cuts across years, sometimes generations and even centuries. Finally, it's all about location, location, and location, very often in close proximity to the ocean, like northern California, the Loire
Valley of northern France, New Zealand, and so many others.
Truro Vineyards of Cape Cod possesses all three of these critical elements. The Roberts family dreamed of owning and operating a vineyard together for years. Dave Roberts spent more than 40 years in the fine wine and spirits industry, 20 as the CEO of the multi-state distribution giant United Liquors. When he retired from that position in 2006, he and his family became even more determined to make that dream come true, and they acquired the winery in March of 2007.
The family will be hands-on owners with Dave and his wife Kathy Roberts as the general managers. Their son David Roberts Jr.-formerly a successful brewer in Atlanta, GA-will assist with vineyard management and winemaking, working alongside Matyas Vogel, a wine maker at Truro Vineyards since 2004. Daughter-in-law Amy Roberts is responsible for finance and administration. Daughter Kristen Roberts is in charge of sales and marketing and, and another daughter, Stephanie Roberts Hartung, a professor at Suffolk University Law School, is also an owner.
The Roberts family's plan for Truro Vineyards is simultaneously practical and visionary. It's important for the new owners to maintain the success the winery has enjoyed for the past 15 years as a landmark on the seaswept easternmost end of Cape Cod. Every summer, thousands of wine lovers tour the vineyard and winery to enjoy both the educational and the tasting experience. Thanks to modern wine making technologies available almost for the first time, there are plans to reach beyond the estate grapes, to make expressive, individualistic wines from some of America's finest wine regions.
