Biographical or Historical Note
It has taken three generations of “Joseph Ginets” to make one adventurous Frenchman’s American dream come true . In 1890 , the first Joseph Ginet left his home in the French Alps to see the world . The Ginet family owned vineyards , which the region is famous for. Once in America , he worked his way across the country looking for a suitable region to start his own vineyard . In 1898 , Joseph Ginet found a neglected orchard outside the town of Jacksonville , Oregon on Sterling Creek . He salvaged the trees and established himself in his new home . In 1904 , he returned to Savoie and brought back grape cuttings . Joseph made wine and sold fruit and grape plants . He named his business "Plaisance Orchard. " Today , the third generation of Ginets is making wine once again . Joseph Ginet’s grandson , Joe , and his wife Suzi , have imported plants from the family vineyards in St . Jean de la Porte , and UC Davis , and are fulfilling Joseph’s dream in America . Joseph Ginet is again making wine and offering plants for sale from Plaisance Ranch , "with great pleasure. "
