The Dysons continued to scale the brand and, importantly, evolve the business to more of an estate model by acquiring world-class vineyards, which today total more than 135 acres in Sonoma’s Russian River Valley. Following a minority investment four years ago, Domaine Faiveley has now acquired a majority share with the Dysons retaining a minority position.
