Marc Mondavi officially joined the family business in 1978, though he was a constant presence in the winery and vineyards from a very early age. Raised on the winery property, Marc always knew winemaking was his path. He studied viticulture and enology at the University of California, Davis, as well as marketing at California State University, Sacramento. He was especially interested in viticulture, and even today continues to oversee the family's vineyards. He and wife Janice Mondavi have four daughters, Angelina, Alycia, Riana and Giovanna, who are each beginning to make their own mark as the fourth generation of family leadership.
"My father is a constant inspiration and has instilled in me the value of hard work and being a strong community member," said Angelina Mondavi, member of the fourth generation, brand ambassador and board member. "As my sisters and I chart our paths as part of the fourth generation – from winemaking to sales to being family ambassadors – we are always thinking about how we can ensure CK Mondavi and Family remains at the forefront of high-quality, approachable wines that give back and do good."
