Jack Creek Cellars is a small family owned and operated vineyard and winery. Our Vineyard and winemaking practices are synonymous: Quality and close personal attention.

Hand tended vines producing low yields of fruit with intense flavors, harvested at the peak of performance is our daily focus. This fruit leads to limited amounts of luscious, hand crafted wines for you to enjoy. Handled gently and nurtured from the vine to the bottle we believe that our wines reflect the beautiful terroir of the Central Coast of California.

Located in a cool micro-climate on the southern end of the Santa Lucia Mountain Range we are in a unique position to grow fruit that is exposed to brisk foggy mornings, warm days cooled by Coastal breezes blowing through the Templeton Gap in the early afternoons, creating perfect and prized conditions for the varietals we have chosen.

Please come join us at our small production, working winery. 100% Estate Pinot Noirs, Chardonnay and Syrah. Nothing too fancy, just us and our crew! We'll look forward to seeing you!

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
