Distillery Information

PlumpJack Winery is located in Oakville, in California’s Napa Valley. Like many producers in the region, it is famous for its Cabernet Sauvignon wines made in the foothills of the Vaca Mountains. The estate covers 42 acres (17 ha), encompassing well-drained hillside sites and rich clays on the valley floor. The diversity of terroir here is reflected in the Cabernet Sauvignon wines that PlumpJack has within its collection. Fruit is also sourced from grower vineyards in Carneros, Rutherford and Calistoga to make a range of varietal wines from Syrah, Merlot and Chardonnay. PlumpJack uses a range of winemaking techniques in the winery. Fermentation takes place in either stainless steel or oak, with either wild or introduced yeast. A range of oak treatments are also employed, from new and old French oak barriques to 500-liter puncheons. PlumpJack was founded in 1995 by Gavin Newsom and Gordon Getty, who went on to build a small empire of hotels, restaurants, retailers and wineries in Napa and San Francisco. These include the CADE winery in Napa and Odette in the Stags Leap District.
