The Riboli Family
The Riboli family has been a fixture in the greater Downtown Los Angeles community since 1917. In 1910, Santo Cambianica left his home in Italy to seek the American Dream. After registering at Ellis Island, he traveled across the Country and set his roots in Downtown Los Angeles where he founded the San Antonio Winery in 1917. His nephew Stefano Riboli apprenticed under Santo throughout the '30s and '40s and built Riboli Family Wines into what it is today. The Riboli family remains a fixture in the community and continues to own and operate the family business. The family owns the property located at 130 W. College Street.
