Engelmann Cellars

In 1900 a German immigrant couple from the Volga river region of Russia named Henry and Elizabeth Engelman immigrated to the United States. Henry and his family took a long train ride from Ellis Island to Fresno, CA where he settled in town, and then bought a small ranch in the early 1900’s west of the city of Fresno.

This is where he started the long family history of grape growing in Fresno County, and he added to his family with several sons and daughters.
