WINE & SPIRITS
DELI, CHEESE & BAKERY
Pey-Marin Vineyards was founded in 1999 and
crafts small lots of critically-acclaimed Pinot Noir
and dry Riesling on the chilly west Marin coast.
The Peys bring a combined 50 years experience
to wine growing in Marin County and have
played an integral part in the county's wine
growing renaissance. Pey-Marin is a local, familyowned enterprise, with Jonathan & Susan Pey
doing the heavy lifting, sometimes with help
from their three daughters. The Peys encourage
you to "Think Global – but DRINK LOCAL!" and
enjoy their Pey-Marin wines with the bounty
that Marin-grown produce, meats, seafood and
wines offer.
The Lafranchi Family has been established in
Marin since 1919, when Fredolino Lafranchi and
his wife started the Lafranchi Dairy in Nicasio.
Swiss Master cheese maker Maurizio Lorenzetti
has mentored our family in the art of making
the cheeses of Valle Maggia. We offer local,
handmade, sustainable, award winning organic
Farmstead cheeses, based on traditional Swiss
Italian recipes. The Lafranchi Family is extremely
proud to bring our versions of the cheese of our
ancestors to Marin, we hope you enjoy them.
Home Grown in Marin.
