A Name Synonymous with Quality

The Terlato name has stood for excellence for more than 70 years, shaping the luxury wine business in the United States. From importing the world’s finest wines to producing award-winning vintages at three California wineries, the family has always prioritized quality, tradition, and the joy of sharing. The same philosophy carries over to the Terlato family table
Family meals are prepared using the best ingredients, traditional recipes, and fresh ideas inspired by travel—all accompanied by fine wine and lively conversation.

Crafting Food with the Care of Home

At Terlato Kitchen, we bring that same attention to detail into our small-batch sauces and specialty foods. Our first product, the Pomodoro Sauce, comes from an age-old family recipe, hand-selected ingredients and perfected for unparalleled quality.
Every jar reflects the care, craftsmanship, and flavor that the Terlato family has shared for generations.

Simple, Authentic, Exceptional

The Terlato family has always gathered around meals made with authentic Italian recipes. John Terlato recognized a need for a sauce as fresh as homemade, without artificial flavors or over-complicated ingredients.
After sampling the top brands, he perfected a recipe using small-batch techniques, making it possible for everyone to enjoy artisanal quality at home.

“Food should be both simple and extraordinary, and shared.”
