Susan & Duane Hoff

College sweethearts, Susan and Duane Hoff met in 1985 just as “Sound of Music”, a 4 store stereo shop in Minnesota was changing its name to Best Buy. As their relationship grew, so did the young company. The Hoff’s worked there until Best Buy became a Fortune 100 company and had the best performing stock on the NYSE of the 1990’s.

In 2004, they shifted their focus to wine and founded Fantesca Estate & Winery.

With Heidi Barrett as their winemaker, Jim Barbour their vineyard manager, and star Sommelier DLynn Proctor as their national director, the Hoff’s have assembled an All Star team to make and showcase their Napa Valley and Sonoma Russian River wines.
