Founder Jess Jackson’s vision was clear: to craft wines that expressed the soul of the estate vineyards. With a commitment to producing wines that were authentic, sustainable, and high in quality, the Jackson family has earned a reputation for excellence that spans generations.
Today, the Jackson family continues that legacy, combining traditional techniques with innovative practices to produce wine that is both exceptional and sustainable.

The Heart of Jackson Estate: Our Cherished Vineyards
The Jackson Estate wines are born from unique vineyards spread across California’s cool-climate coastal regions. These estate vineyards, perched atop mountains, ridges, hillsides, and raised benchlands, form the soul of the collection. Only 15% of California's vineyards are classified as coastal, and of those, only 5% are located in such challenging topographies. The result? Grapes of exceptional intensity and character.

From Vine to Glass
How does a Jackson Estate wine reach the pinnacle of quality? The answer lies in its meticulous winemaking process. Each grape is grown, harvested, and treated with extraordinary care to preserve the unique essence of its vineyard.
- Hand-Harvested Grapes – By picking each cluster by hand, only the finest fruit makes its way into your bottle.
- Small-Lot Fermentation – Each vineyard’s character is preserved through individual fermentation batches, ensuring complexity and depth.
- Minimal Intervention – Rather than alter the natural fruit profile, Jackson Estate winemakers guide the process to truly showcase the vineyard’s individuality.
This approach honors the land, the grape, and the tradition of boutique winemaking, resulting in wines that are authentic, elegant, and unforgettable.
