The PlumpJack Winery's Estate Vineyard, founded in 1881, is nestled in the nape of the Vaca Mountain range on the eastern side of the Napa Valley. The main winery building, which is still in use, was completed in 1883. Vineyards have covered the Oakville site since the late 1800s. In the more recent past, the facility where PlumpJack now makes its wine was the original home of Villa Mt. Eden Winery. Begun in 1973 by proprietors James and Anne McWilliams, the vineyard and winery rapidly gained attention for producing dynamic, long-lived wines, with particular emphasis on the estate and reserve Cabernet Sauvignons. Continuing in that tradition by producing the finest Cabernet Sauvignon is PlumpJack Winery's ultimate goal. The keystone of this property's consistently hallmark Cabernet Sauvignon is the vineyard itself. PlumpJack Winery's winemaker credits the Oakville estate vineyard an estimated 85% for creating the historically great Cabernets for which the property has become known. |

Winemaker Anthony Biagi

After three years at Duckhorn, Anthony took the winemaker/general manager position at Neal Family Vineyards where, in addition to being responsible for all components of winemaking, he headed the sales and marketing aspects of the business. He held this position until joining the PlumpJack family in the winter of 2003. The 32 year old winemaker has a passion for travel and is a self-described "genuine foodie." Some of his favorite wines, in addition to PlumpJack of course, are French wines including Right Bank Bordeaux, Red Burgundy and Southern Rhone. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
