About “Augie” Gamba
Agostino “Augie” Gamba is a seventh-generation winegrower, stemming from a long and storied line of wine grape growers beginning in the hills of Northern Italy. Augie’s earliest childhood memories revolve around wine, having grown up shadowing his father, Gus, in the vineyards and cellar. His involvement and understanding of the business flourished as he grew up; from observing the growing seasons firsthand, and later, working harvest, and involvement in cellar activities, to eventually becoming more involved in the winemaking and viticulture processes. After graduating from Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, Augie went to work in sales on the distribution side of the business, and later moved onto work for a prominent Sonoma winery. Augie found his passion in the cellar, and after a year of work in Sonoma County, he completed his first harvest abroad in Burgundy, assisting in creation of Grand Cru wines. Augie has since returned to his roots in Sonoma County, bringing his talents home to Gamba.
A true student of the vine, Augie continues to pursue his wine education through earning his Masters in Viticulture at UC Davis, as well as continuing his studies with the Wine and Spirits Education Trust. Augie hopes to inspire a love of wine for others interested in the wine industry, and continues to bring a unique passion, perspective, and knowledge to his multifaceted role.

About Gamba Vineyards
The historic Gamba Estate Vineyard, planted in 1900, is among very few vineyards remaining of original plantings by the pioneering immigrants of the turn of the last century. Organically farmed and using only rainwater for irrigation, we are honored to continue to farm and care for this legendary vineyard site, and produce limited production wines for you to share with your family and friends.
Today, we look enthusiastically to the future as our three children are poised to join the team. With a strong sense of the past and an eye on the future, we are thankful and grateful for our family history that put us here today, and we are excited to see what the future holds.
