Amici Cellars (pronounced ah-ME-chee) is a family-owned winery nestled in the foothills of the Palisades, just outside Calistoga, Napa Valley, where we are dedicated to producing true-to-varietal wines from exceptional vineyard sources.
Working alongside our talented winemaking team led by Tony Biagi and Matt Courtney, together we bring decades of relationships with outstanding growers that, combined with their craftsmanship, result in elegant, balanced, expressive wines made to be enjoyed among friends.
At Amici Cellars, we strive to leave a positive impact on the local and global environment. As stewards and vintners, our long-term economic success relies upon the health and wellbeing of the land we live in and enjoy. This responsibility and commitment is adopted by each member of the Amici Cellars team, and we remain committed to practicing the policies outlined in the Napa Green best business practices and the Amici Cellars Green Action plan.
We have worked closely with the Napa Green Winery organization to better understand how we can continually improve to best steward the land. This has led to several changes in our facility and workplace practices.

John Harris | Owner, CEO
Never idle, John Harris leads an adventurous life. Prior to establishing Amici Cellars, his business career spanned more than three decades and dozens of countries with posts in Bolivia, Argentina, Canada, Singapore and Australia. Returning to Napa, John became an active member in the community and even more active at Amici Cellars, guiding the winery from its early small production success to today’s profitable portfolio of
premier wines.
Bob Shepard | Owner
Bob Shepard has a laser-like focus and attention to detail that can be disarming. You’re just as likely to see him walking the aisles of a nearby wine merchant discussing shelf placement, as you are to see him at
a restaurant pouring Amici Cellars wines for clients. He’s made a career out of building relationships.
Anthony Biagi | Lead Winemaker
Sometimes life brings you full circle, to a place you have been before. While studying marine biology at University of California Davis, Tony Biagi enrolled in an enology winemaking course for pleasure, a pivotal moment that summoned memories of small batch winemaking with is father, family gathered around the table sharing conversation and hand-crafted Cabernets. He was instantly hooked.
Matt Courtney | Consulting Winemaker
Prior to earning his degree in Viticulture and Enology from the University of California Davis, Courtney was on the path to pursue his Master Sommelier certification with the Court of Master Sommeliers. A trip to France to visit and taste with legendary producers was the catalyst that set him on a course to attain a new level of understanding through winemaking.
Dante West | Winemaker
Dante West joined the Amici winemaking team in 2020, seeking a position that blended his love of making high-end Cabernet, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Since graduating from UC Davis with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Viticulture & Enology, Dante has gained extensive experience working in the cellar, lab and vineyard throughout Napa and Sonoma.
