About: Rosa Fierro is the owner and winemaker at Rosa Fierro Cellars. She is the only Hispanic female winemaker in Livermore Valley, specializing in single varietal, single vineyard wines that express the true terroir of Livermore Valley. Her undiscovered grapes are Pinot Blanc, Carmenere, and Cabernet Franc, and is making a Mataro this year.

What is your favorite undiscovered grape? Cabernet Franc is my favorite, and is also our signature varietal in Livermore Valley. I love all the pyrazines!

What was your first experience with an undiscovered grape? The first time I had Carmenere, it blew my mind. All the green chili in the nose made me believe the wine would be chewy, but the wine was so creamy, silky and full of black berry and plumb.

What do you love most about the undiscovered grapes? I love watching my tasting room guests try them for the first time!
