Buzzwords are not uncommon in the wine industry and one that stands above many is sustainability. Winemakers are farmers first, and practice the idea of cultivating the land with great care for future generations. Julien Gervreau is Vice President of Sustainability for Jackson Family Wines in Santa Rosa and sustainability is his passion. I spoke with Julien a couple weeks ago to learn more about the Jackson Family commitment to the land and the future of the industry.

It’s really something to see how just under five acres off of Silverado Trail in Napa Valley can produce some really excellent wine. That’s Tierra Roja. Linda Neal owns Tierra Roja and for this 2021 vintage she is debuting her new winemaker, Benoit Touquette. Linda has been a dear friend for many years and I was able to join her for the 2018 vintage release dinner at the Las Vegas Country Club, two weeks ago. Not only did invited guests taste the new vintage, but 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 as well. Hows that for good luck in Las Vegas!
