Peju creates some of my favorite wines from the Napa Valley and I am excited for you to taste these great wines and meet Lisa Peju. My executive Chef David Kesler has created a custom menu from which each course will be paired with a selected varietal. Join me in experiencing an evening of food, wine, elegance, and of course fun at The Cellar.

Peju produces award-winning wines, which include the flagship HB Reserve, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Zinfandel, Syrah, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Provence, a proprietary blend of red and white varietals. Peju wines are hand-crafted using fruit organically farmed from our Rutherford Estate Vineyard and their sustainably farmed Persephone Vineyard.

I look forward to dining with you soon,

BIO

Lisa Peju

You may recognize Lisa from her popular ads that run in the San Francisco Chronicle and various other wine country publications. Lisa’s passion and love for her family’s business shines through in every photo.

The Peju’s Rutherford vineyard has been home to Lisa since she was six years old. It was then that she moved with her parents from Southern California to wine country to begin a life devoted to growing grapes, producing high-quality wines and finding new and innovative ways to market the family brand.

Lisa spent her childhood attending Napa Valley schools during the day and tending to the vineyard in the evenings and on weekends. It wasn’t uncommon to see Lisa and her sister Ariana driving the family four-wheeler along the property’s dirt paths with piles of grapes in the back bed.

After graduating from St. Helena High School, Lisa first attended Marymount College in Palos Verdes and then U.C. Santa Barbara to study marketing and graphic design with plans of becoming a computer animator. But a summer trip to Paris in 1998 to study French at Sorbonne University with Ariana planted the seeds for another calling. Three years later, the French language came in handy as HB took her daughters to VIN EXPO in Bordeaux, the largest wine Exposition in the World. Lisa enjoyed promoting Peju’s wines so much that she decided to change career paths and join the family business as a marketing and public relations ambassador.

The position was a perfect fit, and it meant that Lisa would play an integral role in carrying on the family tradition of producing award-winning wines into the future.

Since joining Peju in 2001, Lisa has traveled throughout Europe and Asia, including Japan, Korea and Hong Kong, representing Peju. In the United States, Lisa has blanketed the map and led the charge to reach younger customers – Peju’s consumers of the future.

From beyond the Napa Valley, Lisa brings Peju wines to homes and businesses across the world.

The California Apartment Association (CAA) is actively deliberating what position to take regarding the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association's proposed ballot measure: California Property Owners and Farmland Protection Act (CPOFPA) commonly known as the Jarvis Eminent Domain and Rent Control Initiative.  This measure, if it should qualify for the California June 2008 ballot, is intended to limit both eminent domain and rent control in California.

The results of a poll commissioned by the CAA found the following results of more than 800 likely voters, Democrats and Republicans, homeowners and renters:

  • 41% would support the measure
  • 52% would oppose the measure
  • 55% support rent control and do not believe it should be eliminated

Among those voters who oppose the measure:

  • 58% oppose due to concerns that the bill limits water storage/delivery options
  • 62% oppose believing that rent control laws protect vulnerable segments of society

When provided a choice:

  • 68% would support an eminent domain initiative that does not eliminate rent control

Generally, ballot measures that garner at least 60% support in early polling have a reasonable shot at success.  Clearly this measure is a long-shot.  The California Apartment Association has historically taken a thoughtful approach towards housing issues presented to voters.  As this measure has not yet qualified for the ballot, the Association is adhering to its long-held policy of not taking a position -- yet.  But this measure is SURE to be a political hot button if it does qualify and the Association knows that regardless of the measure's success there will be far-reaching consequences.

The Board is weighing the following options in anticipation of the measure being on the ballot:

  • Support - A reasonable position given the impact that draconian rent control measures in certain cities has had on property owners.  But this position will also cost the Association much in both terms of money and goodwill.
  • Neutral - A safe course but leaves the Association open to criticism from both sides.
  • Oppose - Will garner significant alienation from members and allies who really want rent control abolished.  But given the relatively low early support, this option may be the most realistic.

In addition to these positions, the CAA is also looking at an "oppose but offer other alternatives" position.  In so doing, the CAA may be able to offer up new ideas and garner support among groups who would not normally be aligned with property owners.

What are your views on this issue?  Is abolition of rent control a good idea?  Should cities be able to continue to implement drastic measures to maintain tight rent control?  Or are there some better ideas somewhere in the middle that will help everyone?  The CAA will be sending its members a formal questionnaire on the subject and as a member of the Association myself, I am interested in your thoughts on this issue.
