FRANK AND LIZ SHARE THEIR TASTING NOTES & FEELINGS

For Liz Vezér, previously known as Liz Duarte, wine is no stranger. Wine has always been a part of the Duarte heritage. Starting back from her uncles humble winery located in the lush and resplendent San Joaquin Valley. Frank has a slightly different story, for him wine was uncharted territory until he met his lovely wife Liz. Along with the many other things they shared in common, the love of wine soon became one of them. It wasn’t until many years, and five kids later, that Frank and Liz decided to take their love of wine to new heights. Moving to the foothills of Suisun Valley, Frank was able to see the potential that this alluring valley had to offer. Now was as good of a time as ever to venture out and broaden the Vezér family’s horizons. Frank and Liz envisioned a warm and inviting winery embedded in the very heart of the valley. With a wine that taunts the senses and gently glides across your tongue, it’ll leave your mouth pleading for more. Frank and Liz’s vision is now a reality. We are pleased to introduce Vezér Family Vineyard. We welcome you to be a part of our dreams.

Looking back, it’s clear that winning the DOUBLE GOLD, the SILVER and the BRONZE wasn’t really the prize.
