Our Roots
Californian to the core, our spirit of adventure fuels everything we do at Skyside. We believe we should enjoy wine and live life to the fullest.
Expanding our horizons beyond Napa and Sonoma, where we started our adventures 40 years ago, we seek out special vineyard regions. This helps us to deliver the most memorable wine and ensure you can enjoy a glass or two along life’s journey.
The terroir of California — climate, soil and terrain — is a big part of what makes us so special.
California is generous, bountiful and intense, and we want to capture this essence in Skyside. The vast and varied landscape means there are many high-quality viticulture regions within the state of California. This provides our winemaker with a variety of flavors and textures to create rich, expressive and complex wines.

Our Winemaker

Anne Dempsey
A passion for wine runs in Anne’s family, beginning with her Tuscan grandfather who started his US wine business in the 1920s.
Since completing her Bachelor of Science in Viticulture and Enology at the University of California — Davis, Anne gained work experience in wineries around the world, but she’s always drawn back to her beloved California.
Today she is proud to be Skyside’s Winemaker, leading an expert team in discovering and exploring new vineyard sites. Her passion is to reveal the richness of California’s vineyards through wines that can be enjoyed on all occasions.
