History
Peter got his start in winemaking in 2001 at Stolpman Vineyards and was the Assistant Winemaker there until 2006. He is also one of the founding members of Piedrasassi and Holus Bolus wines. During this time he gained experience working with Syrah, Grenache, Sangiovese, Pinot Noir, Cabernet and Roussanne. After meeting Amy spitting wine over the winery drains in Lompoc in 2004. On a long hike in Santa Barbara in 2005, the idea of Black Sheep Finds was bantered about and just a few months later the first Syrah grapes for Hocus Pocus were being made into wine. Unlike the Oscar it all happened so fast. However, someone in the family must have a real job, so Amy a certified Master of Wine, works for a small boutique Burgundy and Bordeaux Importer. Peter is in charge of wine making for Black Sheep Finds and Holus Bolus, as well as managing and directly selling the wines in Central and Southern California.
