John Ware
Biographical Sketch
John began working full-time for the winery in June 2000 as National Sales Director. Despite being
the "new guy" to the Quilceda Creek management team, he will remind you that the 2008 vintage marks his 23rd crush!
As Quilceda Creek's General Manager, he is responsible for the acquisition and maintenance of all restaurant
and retail accounts, distributorship relationships, compliance, marketing and overall day-to-day business
and sales management. During the harvest, he assists the winemakers in whatever capacity is needed;
namely in fermentation management as directed by Paul.
John is married to his college sweetheart, Lisa (Alex and Jeannette's oldest daughter). They have four
children: Lindsay, Michaela, Caitlin and Rahul.
