“Winemaker Adrian Manspeaker’s Humboldt-sourced Joseph Jewell 2021 Alderpoint Pinot Noir, as well as his Jewell Wines 2021 Ritchie Vineyard Chardonnay were both served at a State Department luncheon in Washington, D.C., hosted by Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Vice President Kamala Harris in honor of Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.”
“This extraordinary wine sets a high standard for California’s Humboldt County.”
“Do good while drinking good. The Forestville tasting room donates 10% of proceeds [from their Artist Series wines] to the World Central Kitchen to help fund relief for wartorn Ukraine.”
“Joseph Jewell remains an unheralded boutique source for some of the most complex and authentic Pinot Noir…”
From unexplored vineyards in hidden coastal corners of Northern California to renowned Russian River and Sonoma Coast sites, we create wines that combine character and approachability, community and drinkability.
Every wine brings out the unique qualities of its vineyard and the personality and care of the people who brought it to life. Singular expressions of people and place, vintage after vintage, creating an outpouring of connection.
In 2006 we began making wine in a garage for people like us — back then it was all about creating high-quality wines that go with laid-back experiences, always bringing it back to food, friendship, and family.
Fifteen years later, we’ve aged a bit, like some of our favorite wines, and we put family squarely at the center of all we do. It all happens within a vibrant and close community that surrounds the wine experience. From growing to making to drinking, we’re honing our craft and widening our circle with each vintage.
We’re proud and humbled that we get to create small-lot Pinot Noir from the crown jewel Sonoma County sites in our own backyard. We can’t wait for you to discover the unexplored vineyards of our Humboldt County roots.
Delight in the simplicity of well-made wines, created and shared in kindred spirit with you.
