It Started in 1965...
When Davis Bynum created Barefoot Bynum Burgundy—the first ever Barefoot wine—in his garage in Albany, California.
And Then in 1986...
We changed our name to Barefoot Cellars, created the famous footprint label and quickly captured the hearts of our fans.
Finally in 1995...
We struck gold. Jennifer Wall, winemaker extraordinaire, joined our team and sprinkled her magic dust on our line of fun, delicious wines.
