Et Cetera
In 2008, four lifelong friends from Napa and Sonoma counties, who also happen to be second-plus generation winegrowers/makers/sellers, formed Et Cetera Wine Company. With varied wine-industry backgrounds and concentrations, the four work to produce a range of wines that are not bound by variety or geography but are focused solely on quality and value.
At the core of Et Cetera Wine Co. is the Et Cetera label, priced around $20. These appellation-specific wines are created by Mark Beringer at the winemaking facilities of Harry Merlo. The hallmarks of this label are elegance and food-friendliness.
