Chappellet winery is looking forward to a post-COVID-19 crisis world when it makes even more wine and entertains even more guests.

Despite the tourism ban under the state shelter-at-home order, the winery located in hills near Lake Hennessey went to the county Planning Commission on Wednesday with growth requests for the future. It got what it wanted.

The winery can increase annual wine production from 150,000 gallons to 250,000 gallons. It can increase total annual visitation for tastings and for marketing events from 15,145 to 38,810.

Cyril Chappellet told commissioners he and his mother live on the property and the winery is the family’s primary source of business. They don’t have six other businesses standing behind them.
