Lisa Evich
Hailing from Santa Rosa, Lisa fell in love with food and wine at an early age. While at Sonoma State University, her focus was on Environmental Studies and Planning, but there was something about the vineyards that called to her. It wasn’t just the science of winemaking, it was the art and the craft that could translate a place into a bottle. Lisa says “when crafting exceptional wines, the key is to keep the big picture and the details in focus all at once.”
Lisa joined Foley Family Wines & Spirits in 2024 as the Winemaker for Southern Sonoma, crafting vineyard driven wines for Chateau St. Jean and Sebastiani.
Lisa received a BA degree in Environmental Studies and Planning and a Wine Business MBA from Sonoma State University, and a Winemaking Certificate from the University of California, Davis.
