Joseph Vergari is the Executive Chef and owner of J. Vergari, Inc. catering and special events, along with his wife Julia Petrocelli-Vergari. After almost twenty years at the helm of a thriving kitchen and business, it was only natural for this ambitious entrepreneur to be appointed the position as general manager of Raphael vineyard and winery.
Growth has been continuous throughout 2010 and the future of Raphael is exhilarating. Mr. Vergari is focused on the organization and expansion of business at the vineyard and among wholesale markets. Joseph is following the same philosophy within the winery that he does in his kitchen. "I'm very passionate about what I do, whether I'm planning a menu or analyzing sales reports." Joseph explains, "At Raphael, we've implemented some innovative strategies and new ideas such as pioneering the wine-on-tap system for a variety of our restaurant customers. It's exciting to project what we can achieve and be a vital part of getting us there."
Since his start as general manager, Mr. Vergari has built a strong staff. He has formed further positions and chosen key personnel, including new winemaker, Leslie Howard. "With our new team in place," He tells us, "There is no stopping us now!"
