<title>Journalist Profiles John Lasseter, Winemaker</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-40258" title="LasseterFamilyWineryLogo" src="http://www.mediabistro.com/fishbowlla/files/2011/09/LasseterFamilyWineryLogo.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="106" />In between the release of <em>Toy Story</em> and <em>A Bug&#8217;s Life</em>, <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/John-Lasseter-profile.html" target="_">John Lasseter</a></strong> officially got into the wine business. His first vintage, per a flavorful <a href="http://www.pressdemocrat.com/article/20110926/LIFESTYLE/110929716/1309/sitemaps" target="_">profile piece</a> in the Santa Rosa <em>Press Democrat</em> by freelance contributor <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Virginie-Boone-profile.html" target="_">Virginie Boone</a></strong>, was a private-label run handed out as Christmas gifts in 1997.</p>
<p>Today, things are much different. The chief creative officer of Disney and Pixar has four different vintages priced to sell on the open market, courtesy of a full-time winemaker and an ever-expanding plot of land in Glen Ellen, Sonoma County. He has also gone <em>Ratatouille</em> with his wine names, opting for the French monikers of Enjoué, Chemin de Fer , Paysage and Amoureux:</p>
<blockquote><p>“I&#8217;m a storyteller and [my wife] Nancy&#8217;s a great storyteller, too, and we decided that for each one of our wines, there&#8217;s a reason we make it based on things we love, experiences we&#8217;ve had and so we crafted stories around each one,” John said.</p>
