John Tanda, Estate Host

John joined the Amizetta team in the Summer of 2022 as a full time host after spending 9 years working at various wineries throughout Napa Valley. A California native from Santa Cruz, he spent his college years studying Sociology at Long Beach State University and utilizes those skills to make sure every guest has the best experience possible. When not at the winery, you can almost always find John outdoors either hiking, gardening, tailgating or working out. Otherwise, you can find him enjoying his eclectic music collection and sci fi or fantasy movies. Along with his wife of 15 years, Melissa, John aspires to travel to Italy to learn about his Italian roots - spend a tasting with John, and watch those hands fly!
