Ryan & Nicole Pease
As a teenager, in the 1990’s, growing up in the San Francisco Bay area, Ryan’s dream was the same as many American youths. Being an avid sports fan, playing football in high school, Ryan’s goal was to play quarterback for the San Francisco Forty-Niners. With odds stacked against him, who would have thought that Ryan would be drafted by the 49ers out of high school, win the starting QB position, then lead the Forty-Niners to a Super Bowl win a few years later! It was a youthful dream, but certainly not reality.
The truth was, that instead of football, Ryan’s future focus turned to wine, leading him to a career where he has become one of an elite group of young Paso Robles winemakers.
