Anthony Truchard
Truchard Vineyards | Napa, CA | truchardvineyards.com
Ever since Anthony can remember, he has been alongside his father working on the vineyards and in the cellar. Whether pruning vines or racking wines, Anthony has experienced every aspect of winemaking, from grape to bottle.
Anthony received his Bachelor's Degree from the University of California Santa Barbara, where he studied philosophy and biology and further developed his wine knowledge by working in boutique wine shops and restaurants. These experiences were his initial lessons in sales and marketing - by interacting with wine lovers in different milieu, Anthony honed the unique skill of discerning what a customer seeks when selecting a wine, either off a shelf or from a wine list. Upon graduating from UCSB, Anthony returned to Napa and joined a vineyard management company with his brother, which he successfully managed for several years. Realizing the importance of developing his business and legal acumen, Anthony decided to return to school to obtain his law degree.
Upon graduation cum laude from Cardozo School of Law, he practiced patent law in New York before his parents asked him to return home to Napa to help manage the winery. As Sales and Marketing Director, Anthony has led the expansion of Truchard Vineyards into several markets, drawing on his legal foundation to develop new ideas and successfully manage all aspects of his family's business. When he is not traveling the world sharing the beauty of Truchard wines, he enjoys spending time with his family and friends in Napa or simply relaxing at home with his Labrador Retriever, Jack.
