Where to find The Disney Family of Wines
There are only a few places where guests can enjoy The Disney Family of Wines. These fine wines can be sipped at Disney World and Disneyland. We first discovered these wines when dining in Disney California Adventure earlier this year.
All of these wines have a Disney family connection either to Walt Disney or The Walt Disney Company.
The wineries include:
Lasseter Family Winery – Owned by John Lasseter, Chief Creative Officer of Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios
Chappellet Winery – Owned by Frank Wells, former Disney President / CEO
Frank Family Vineyards – Owned by Richard H. Frank, former President of The Walt Disney Studios and Chairman of Walt Disney Television
MacMurray Ranch – Owned by Fred MacMurray, Disney Legend and actor who starred in Disney movies, such as The Shaggy Dog
Fess Parker Winery – Owned by Fess Parker, Disney Legend and actor who portrayed Davy Crockett
Silverado Vineyards – Owned by Diane Disney Miller, Walt Disney’s daughter and founder of the Walt Disney Family Museum
Gogi – Owned Kurt Russell, Disney Legend and actor who starred in more than 25 Disney movies
Skywalker Vineyards – Owned by George Lucas, soon-to-be Disney Legend, film director, screenwriter and creator of Star Wars and Indiana Jones
So where can you get the wines? At Disney California Adventure they can be sipped at Alfresco Tasting Terrace, located above Wine Country Trattoria. This lounge overlooks Carsland and features fine wines and Italian small plates. At Disney World, Epcot’s Le Cellier Steakhouse in the Canada Pavilion features these fantastic wines and exceptional steaks.
At Alfresco Tasting Terrace, all of the wines except for Skywalker Vineyards is available. Le Cellier Steakhouse carries six of the eight wines. They’re still waiting to add Skywalker Vineyards and Gogi.
To many, Le Cellier might not seem like the right place to feature The Disney Family of Wines… but what better place than a restaurant that offers fine cuisine. If you’re worried that they won’t carry the Canadian wines, there is nothing to worry about. The restaurant will still offer those wines.
Reservations for Le Cellier Steakhouse can be made online or by calling (407) WDW-DINE.
We tried a wine flight of these at Alfresco and found them to be fantastic. They’re a little pricey, but worth the extra few dollars. We highly recommend trying them!

At Disney World you can also find a number of them available at Flying fish and the Yachstman steakhouse among other signature restaurants. At Disney California Adventure you can also find a number of them on the list at Carthay Circle as well as several available in the lounge if you’re looking for a quick stop in there.

I recently purchased a bottle of 2017 Skywalker Chardonnay. There’s an autograph on the bottle. Can someone tell me who is autographing bottles at the Launch Bay at Disney’s Hollywood Studios?

I don’t know who is autographing them. I’d ask a Disney Cast Member. They should know who’s autograph it is.
