About Picchetti Winery
Picchetti is a living piece of Cupertino's pre-tech past: the Picchetti brothers, Italian immigrants, homesteaded the Montebello Road ranch in the 1870s-80s, and their brick winery building and homestead, now a Midpeninsula open-space preserve, host a working winery again, pouring beside peacocks and hiking trailheads.
The historic ranch setting, minutes from Apple's headquarters yet a century away, makes it one of the Bay Area's most atmospheric tasting stops, with hearty reds leading the list. History with hiking boots.
