Occasio Winery is a boutique, family-run winery founded in 2007 by John Kinney. He says:

"I have been creating wines in my head for more than 40 years. It is only in the last decade that I have been actually putting these thoughts into the bottle. It is the beginning of what I hope to be a long voyage of learning and discovery.

I founded my winery with a keen desire to contribute to this Valley I have come to revere. Livermore Valley is my muse – I’m inspired to recapture the classic elegance of our Valley’s historic wines, wines that commanded the world’s attention and placed our valley among the finest winegrowing regions in the world."
