History

Established in 1901.

In the fall of 1878, Paul Masson an ambitious young Frenchman arrived in San Francisco. Born in Burgundy to a family of well-established winemakers, Masson grew-up surrounded by some of the finest wineries and vineyards in the world. Good fortune or perhaps destiny led him to the winery of Charles Lefranc, located a days journey south in the Santa Clara Valley. Lefranc, himself French expatriate was a highly respected vintner but it would be his collaboration with Masson that helped to put California wine on the world map. In 1958, an amphitheater was built and the now famous Concert Summer Series began. World-class music and breathtaking scenery have consistently proved to be a crowd-pleasing combination. Today, the Spanish portal provides a dramatic backdrop to the stage where performers such as Lyle Lovett, Willie Nelson and Ray Charles have played.
