Founded in 1969, Cuvaison Estate Wines (CEW) is a family-owned, locally operated Napa Valley estate vintner dedicated to producing ultra-premium, vineyard-driven and hand-crafted wines with an unmistakable sense of place. Drawing exclusively on grapes grown within its two certified sustainable vineyards in Napa Valley, Cuvaison Estate Wines’ portfolio includes Cuvaison, which produces wines from its estate vineyard in Carneros, and Brandlin, which makes wines from the Brandlin Vineyard on Mount Veeder. The wines for both Cuvaison and Brandlin are crafted by Winemaker Steve Rogstad, who has over 25 years’ experience making wine in Napa Valley.

What We Believe
That wine is essential to the art of living. That wine, along with food and the arts, is a beautiful way to elevate one’s quality of life. That your own journey, preferences and experiences are the most important factors in wine appreciation, rather than those of critics and their ratings.
JAX Vineyards is a boutique winery based north of Calistoga in Napa Valley. We produce an estate Cabernet Sauvignon, as well as the Y3 line of wines with grapes sourced from top vineyard sites throughout the valley. We focus on clean, varietally-correct wines at accessible price points.
