Under the leadership of Paul Dolan, former President of Fetzer Vineyards, Parducci are committed to socially responsible and environmentally sound agriculture and winemaking methods while working to enhance the quality, recognition and perception of Mendocino County Wines. This USA winery is the oldest in Mendocino, was certified as organic by CCOF in  and all vineyards are either certified as or in transition to organic and biodynamic status.
