Sula Vineyards

Situated 180 km northeast of Mumbai, Nashik is Indias largest grape-growing region, but had traditionally never been used to grow wine grapes. Wondering why, an enterprising, Stanford-trained engineer named Rajeev Samant quit his hi-tech Silicon Valley job in 1993 to do some investigating. CEO, Sula Vineyards - Rajeev Suresh Samant, Founder and CEO of Sula Vineyards, was born and raised in Mumbai, India. After schooling at Cathedral School, Mr. Samant gained admission in Californias prestigious Stanford University, from where he graduated with a Bachelors degree in Economics and also completed a Masters degree in Engineering Management.
