A Story of Belief, Grown from Nature
Since our inception, True Myth has set out to celebrate the patience and wonder of Mother Nature and the natural beauty and excellence of the world around us. We are grounded in the art of storytelling and the power of belief – belief in nature, belief in possibility, belief in the beauty of our wines. Our grapes are grown with care and appreciation for the rich soils and ideal terrain of the Central Coast. From the nurturing warmth of Paso Robles to the cool coastal influence of Edna Valley, our wines honor these natural gifts through their expressive quality and character. We welcome you to experience the story of True Myth and believe.

our story
Winemaker
Rob Takigawa
Great wines may start with the fruit, but ultimately the winemaker has the final say. Luckily for us, the man behind every bottle of our wine is the immensely talented Rob Takigawa. An award-winning winemaker, Rob has been part of the True Myth family for nearly 25 years. Each vintage allows him to perfect his craft, creating beautiful wines that reflect the beauty of the Central Coast of California.
Rob and his team are dedicated to furthering the vision of our original founders, Jack and Catharine Niven, who came to San Luis Obispo in the early 1970’s to plant a vineyard in a valley that was, at the time, only known for its dairy farms and garbanzo beans. As a Central Coast local and Cal Poly graduate with a degree in soil science, Rob is in many ways the perfect man to continue the Niven’s legacy. When not making wine he enjoys surfing, traveling with his family, and coaching his children’s sports teams.
