OUR STORY
St. Supéry Estate Vineyards & Winery is the largest family owned, sustainably farmed and estate produced winery in Napa Valley. Our land and our winery are certified Napa Green.

HISTORY
The Skalli Family, founders of St. Supéry Estate, first began making wine in 1920. Beginning in the 1970's, Robert Skalli spent eight years searching for the perfect location to expand his family's business to Napa Valley. Robert selected a relatively unknown area high in the northeastern mountains of the newly established Napa Valley appellation to plant his dream. Thirty three years later, the world-class vineyard estates in Napa Valley were sold to Chanel. Inc.

Chanel has always been interested in high potential and long term projects. St. Supéry corresponds to this philosophy. At St. Supéry we have a long term commitment to the vineyards and winery and are personally invested in acting as stewards of the land, preserving the properties for future generations. Our Napa Green Certifications for the winery and vineyards are evidence of this commitment. This approach and long term investment in Estate properties also gives us the ability to maintain consistency in grape and wine quality over time.

ANGELO'S AND VINCI'S NAMED  BEST ITALIAN RESTAURANT IN ORANGE COUNTY 2016!  "O C Hotlist, Top 5 Italian Restaurants"  by CityVoter.com!

OUR HISTORY
Forty-three years ago, our restaurant was built with tradition and has since continued with tradition. At our home in the old marketplace, we tribute our ancestors who came to America in the late 1800’s – their spirit and their recipes!

A little about this old building…
Originally built as an L-shaped marketplace in the days when Fullerton was an orchard (early 1900’s), the local farmers would bring their produce in from the fields by horse and wagon to sell to the townspeople. The original wood trusses of the old roof system may still be seen in the Venetian Room. Approximately twenty years later, renovation of the building changed it from its original L-shape to a square. This was accomplished by the large wood barrel trusses (an unusual truss!), which can be seen in the Sicilian Room and the Piazza Fantasia. During our renovation in 1992, the old wood, terra cotta tiles and brick was salvaged and re-used to keep alive the feeling and memories of those days long ago.

About our décor…
Be prepared when you walk into Angelo’s and Vinci’s Ristorante to be overwhelmed! With surprises in every corner, you won’t know where to look first! You will sit amidst the art of the great masters, in an Italian town square complete with the storefronts of old Italian butcher and cheese mongers, fruit and wine vendors, seamstresses showing their wares, and more. Fairy lights abound under cathedral ceilings as our ancestors smile down at you from the Family Love Altar. Explore and you will be surrounded by colorful Sicilian puppets, the carnival masks and canals of Venice, and the romance of Romeo & Juliet. Find our mystical Room of the Moon…and don’t forget King Kong, Dracula, Frankenstein, witches, ghosts and who-knows-what that await you in the Monster Wine Cellar!

And, as for Hollywood…
Founder, Steven Peck, renowned Hollywood dancer, choreographer and veteran actor of over 100 movies and television performances, has delightful photographs of over 40 years of famous stars, directors and dancers. Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Gary Cooper, Robert Taylor, Broderick Crawford, Kirk Douglas, Walter Winchell, Sam Wanamaker, Vincent Minnelli, Sylvester Stallone, Ted Danson, David Hasselhof, Ray Sharkey, Shirley MacLaine, Cyd Charisse, Dolly Parton, Joan Collins, Raquel Welch, Olympia Dukakis, Shelly Winters and so many more. Films from Paramount, Twentieth Century Fox, Warner Bros., MGM, Desilu, United Artists, Universal Studios, to name a few.
Ask for a “Walking Tour” brochure to find out more about the meaning and dedications behind our décor!

IN THE NEWS...

Trader Joe's And Costco Just Recalled Frozen Veggies In ALL 50 States

If you love frequenting Costco and Trader Joe's, brace yourselves for some pretty scary news. The US Food and Drug Administration announced CRF Frozen Foods, supplier to both Costco and Trader Joe's, has issued a voluntary recall of all frozen fruits and vegetables. The items were all potentially contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. These organisms can cause fatal infections in young children, the elderly and pretty much anyone with a weak immune system. It also can cause high fevers, headaches, nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea. Pretty much everything produced at CRF since May 2014 is getting the recall involving more than 350 brands in all 50 states. Among the affected foods are mixed veggies, berries, corn and stir fry. According to the FDA, seven people in the US were hospitalized. While two died, the Listeria wasn't the cause of death for either of them. You can find the entire list of frozen food products, which the FDA continues to update, on their website.
