Celebrity Heritage and Vision

In 2005, Emmy^®-award-winning producers and childhood friends Nigel Lythgoe and Ken Warwick purchased and redeveloped this dramatic parcel of land in the highly desirable Paso Robles AVA. Their vision was to create the most beautiful winery in the Central Coast, sparing no expense to build an exquisite Tuscan-style estate. Villa San Juliette has since emerged as a premier wine destination, known for its stunning views, meticulous attention to detail, and exceptional wine quality.

Ken Warwick reflects on the journey, stating, “When we got to Paso Robles, we were immediately impressed by the abundance and beauty of the vineyards there, and decided to look into the possibility of buying and creating our very own. We found a property that had beautiful views and location and decided to demolish the existing house that was there and re-build a Tuscan Style tasting room and winery. With our extended experience of aesthetics and set design from our 50 years in the television business, we were very adamant about the style of the buildings and the atmosphere we wanted to create. It was a long hard and expensive process, but we eventually created our dream vineyard.”

Nigel Lythgoe adds, “We wanted to create an Estate that showcases our passions: wine, music, dance… the arts. Our experience in entertainment fueled the passion for Villa San-Juliette. To be able to drink your own wine while overlooking your vines… is it not the dream of everybody?”

Unparalleled Wine and Events Venue

Villa San Juliette is home to twelve remarkable wine varietals, consistently receiving the highest ratings and accolades from Wine Enthusiast and other prestigious wine critics. The vineyard’s dynamic winemaking style achieves balance and complexity, highlighting the natural character of the fruit.

The estate’s unique features make it a top destination for weddings and special events. Its panoramic views, elegant architecture, and lush gardens provide a picturesque setting for unforgettable celebrations. VSJ's superior staff, found after many years of searching, ensures every event is executed with passion and efficiency.
