OUR STORY

A PASSION FOR ART & WINE

The Jessup Cellars story is one of passion, family, hard work, resilience and, of course, fantastic wine. Over the past two decades, Jessup Cellars has earned a loyal following for its ultra-premium wines of distinction and a word-of-mouth reputation for hosting one of the friendliest tasting rooms in all of wine country.

Both seasoned wine lovers, and those just learning about wine, are embraced and welcomed at Jessup Cellars.

Located just a block north from the famed The French Laundry in the quaint village of Yountville, our wines are available exclusively through our Tasting Room Gallery and website.

Founded by Dan and Becky Blue, Roy and Cheri Eisiminger, Vance and Jana Thompson, Jim and Kelly Mazzo, Kerry and Cindi Solomon, and Eric and Marleen Donnenfeld, their mission is to create and share life-enriching experiences for their members and guests, while also giving back to the community through the support of the arts.

The Art of Hospitality

Guests at Jessup Cellars may choose to taste at its wine bar or relax with sit-down, hosted tastings in the winery’s spacious gallery among curated art, which features rotating installations by celebrated regional and national artists.

The winery also specializes in hosting interactive experiences with a focus on the arts. Highlights include its Art House Sessions summer music series and Art House Short Film Series.

All of the above, along with exclusive access to limited release wines and member-only events, makes Jessup Cellars wine club membership one of the best experiences in wine – both in the Napa Valley, and when guests travel home to share great wine and food with friends and family. For the owners and staff, it’s all about creating a community to share their love of wine, the arts, and everything that makes the Napa Valley so special.
