About Massican Wines
Massican Wines is Dan Petroski's personal label — named for Massican, a reference to the Massicus Mons of the ancient Roman historian Livy, the mountain range in Campania whose name Livy used in describing the battle landscape. The historical-literary naming declares the estate's commitment to Italian white varieties: Tocai Friulano, Ribolla Gialla, Chardonnay, and Arneis, produced in Napa Valley where the Italian white varieties find surprising expression in the warm California terroir. Dan Petroski is also the winemaker at Larkmead Vineyard, making Massican his personal Italian white variety project alongside his primary winemaking role.
