“Mike Noggle is an award winning home wine maker who lives in St. Helena. The Napa Valley is not only a haven for large wineries like Robert Mondavi and Beringer, but also for small home winemakers like Noggle”  This long time Napa resident has been making wine since 1990. “I’ve won a ribbon on every wine I’ve made.” One person to whom Noggle has given his home made wine is Peter Mondavi, Jr., vice president of marketing at Charles Krug Winery in St. Helena. Mondavi took time out of a business trip to Nevada to call on his cell phone and confirm that he drinks Noggle’s wine himself, quite a testimonial when one considers that he has the cellars of Charles Krug to choose from.
