Ryan Newkirk

Ryan Newkirk has long been a part of his family's traditions, whether it's in their Paso Robles vineyard or in the field hunting. He serves as the Director of Operations for Steinbeck Vineyards and Winery, and much of his time is spent carefully managing the property and day-to-day operations of the vineyard. These days, that also includes wildlife and habitat management. Through diligent wildlife management work around the vineyard, Ryan and his family have established excellent habitat for the local Columbia blacktail deer herd. Through that work, Steinbeck Vineyards has become a premier destination for California blacktail deer hunting. Whether he's guiding clients or hunting with family, you'll often find Ryan around the vineyard working and playing at the same time.
