At PlumpJack Winery, we are dedicated to crafting wines that honor the land and balance tradition and innovation. Our story began over a century ago on the estate vineyard in Oakville, Napa Valley. Our journey is rooted in the history of our winery, which dates back to the 1880s, and is characterized by a continuous pursuit of excellence in every aspect of our winemaking process.
Our Winemaking Philosophy
Our winemaking philosophy is centered around the cultivation of diverse soils, creating a unique terroir that contributes to the complex and nuanced flavor profiles of our wines. Our century-old Estate Vineyard is home to a diverse array of soil types, from rocky gravelly bases to rich volcanic nutrients and clay-based soils. This allows us to blend diverse blocks, resulting in wines with intriguing complexity that pay homage to the land from which they originate.
Our Vineyard
Our Estate Vineyard is nestled against the Vaca Mountain Range, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding 42-acre vineyard. Our winery building, which dates back to the 1880s, sits on the edge of the courtyard, providing an intimate setting for wine enthusiasts to explore the winemaking process. From grape to bottle, we meticulously handcraft every aspect of our wines, ensuring that each sip is a testament to the land and our commitment to quality.
Our Team
Our team is comprised of passionate individuals who share a common goal: to create exceptional wines that reflect the essence of our estate. Our winemaker, Aaron Miller, brings a wealth of experience and education to the position. With a Master of Science in Viticulture and Enology from UC Davis, Aaron has spent years honing his skills in the cellar and vineyard. His dedication to his craft has earned him numerous accolades, including three 100-point Cabernet Sauvignons and two Syrahs in the Top 100 Wines of the World.
