The Trincheros – $1.9B
The Trinchero family is a wine empire, which sure sounds fancy to us! Trinchero Family Estates is the fourth biggest wine and wine products manufacturer in the country. It has an expansive portfolio that includes over fifty popular brands of wine. Compared to the other businesses here, it is a relatively new company since it was only founded in 1947. That was the year John and Mario Trinchero bought the Sutter Home Winery in St. Helena, California. The brothers kept the company within the family and Mario’s son took over as the lead winemaker after John decided to retire. Bob, Mario’s son, worked on White Zinfandel, which ended up becoming a highly successful brand. The company eventually grew to include Napa Valley, Menage a Trois, and Napa Cellars, among others!
