Gloria FerrerFamily Tradition — Handcrafted Sparkling WinesFrom Spain to CaliforniaThe award-winning wines of Gloria Ferrer are the payoff of a family dream that began more than 70 years ago, when Pedro Ferrer Bosch first visited the U.S. In Spain, he was already the world's largest maker of sparkling wines made in the traditional méthode champenoise. The next generation fulfilled his quest when Pedro's youngest son, José Ferrer and his wife Gloria built the namesake winery in the breathtaking, rolling hills of Carneros in 1982.
