The winery is now in the capable hands of Peter’s sons, Marc and Peter Jr. Some of their children have already come on board — the 4thth generation of Mondavis to join the family business; together with winemaker Randy Herron, the family continues to raise the bar for everyday wines. And so, in 2017, in a nod to their remarkable forbearers and to pave the way for future generations, they’ve added the words “and family” to the CK Mondavi label.

The Marc and Janice Mondavi family are the core family behind the CK Mondavi and Family brand. Marc, born and bred in Napa Valley, has been in the wine industry all of this life. Janice grew up on a farm near Sacramento, growing fruit trees. After college, she moved to St. Helena to get back to her agricultural roots, met Marc, and within two years, they fell in love and got married. Marc smiles, “And the rest, as they say, is history.”

Proud of both the kids and of their involvement in the family business, Marc says, “It’s not very often you’ll see that high a percentage of the siblings back in the family business. Angelina is a winemaker. Alycia manages and markets other high-end boutique brands. Riana oversees on-premise national accounts for CK Mondavi: hotels and restaurants. And though she’s not yet in the wine industry, Giovanna (nicknamed Gigi) lives in Boston and works in finance. “You need it all.” Janice adds, “And they all love what they’re doing. They’ve found their niche.” Learn more about the fourth generation (G4) Mondavi’s »
