Jay Raffaldini - Owner
Jay Raffaldini started his trading career on Wall Street in 1985 and along with his partners, manages $9 billion in hedge fund assets for global investors. In 2000, Jay acquired an abandoned farm in Wilkes County, North Carolina to begin the process of growing Italian grapes which at the time was unheard of in the State with some varietals having never been planted anywhere in the country. Fast forward to today, Raffaldini Vineyards is one of the most visited estates with some of the highest rated wines made in the entire East Coast. Jay is also a founding member and is currently serving as President of the NC Fine Wines Association. Jay spends his time shuttling from his home in North Carolina to his offices around the world and enjoys managing both his hedge fund business and Raffaldini Vineyards.
