Zak Bedrosian

Zak Bedrosian represents the second generation at Domaine de la Rivière, where he leads business development initiatives across the winery's operations, finance, marketing, and strategic growth. Drawing on a background in private equity and corporate strategy, Zak brings a structured, entrepreneurial, growth-oriented mindset to the family business while maintaining its intimate, family-run spirit.

Passionate about creating memorable experiences for every guest, Zak focuses on building bridges between tradition and innovation. Through digital storytelling and social media, he explores new ways to engage the next generation of wine drinkers — developing events, collaborations, and community-driven moments that make the world of fine wine feel accessible and exciting.

On Zak's 11th birthday, the Bedrosian family became the proud owners of Vineyard eleven. At the time, Zak was more interested in learning to drive the family Ranger through the vineyard rows than in vineyard management. By 14, he had participated in several harvests and was officially trusted to drive the Ranger on his own.

Zak is a graduate of Cornell University's School of Hotel Administration, where he studied Business, Hospitality, Real Estate, and Entrepreneurship.
