Peter Becraft
Anthony Road Wine Company

Winemaker

With an education in the Fine Arts and an incarnation as a casting director for a fashion photographer in New York City, it was only natural that Peter would end up becoming a winemaker in the Finger Lakes. A chance encounter with winemaker Johannes Reinhardt in the spring of 2006 led to an invitation to work the harvest in the fall. He just wanted to work as hard as he could, learn as much as he could, and in the end, make them want him. He never left. Eleven years later, Peter crafts Anthony Road Wine Company’s distinctive wines, collaborates on Tierce Riesling, and makes a riesling for the New York Yankees.
