JOHN MARSH DAVIS 1931-2009
John Marsh Davis, the eminent Bay Area architect who designed our winery building, passed away on February 22, 2009 after more than three-quarters of a century of celebrated excellence in architecture.
Joe Phelps met John in the early 70’s when he designed Rutherford Hill Winery (then Souverain), and Francis Ford Coppola’s winery in Geyserville (then Chateau Souverain.) Those wineries were built by Joe’s construction company, Hensel Phelps, and Joe was so impressed with John’s ideas, he hired him to design JPV.
