Jeff became the first winemaker in history to receive a 100 point score on his inaugural vintage as winemaker for Odette Estate in the Stags Leap District. He has continued to build upon this legacy, following up with 98-100 point scores in every vintage over the last decade.
Jeff’s tenure started in the cellar with the PlumpJack Group under the tutelage of renowned Winemaker, Tony Biagi. He quickly worked his way up to become Assistant Winemaker for both PlumpJack Estate and Cade Estate, and in 2012, was named the founding Head Winemaker for Odette Estate.
With almost 20 years of experience, Jeff's name has become synonymous with passion, quality and dedication to his craft. Today, Jeff’s vision is to share this passion and help others craft the best possible wines "from the ground up".
During his winemaking career, Jeff has valued his close relationships as he's implemented and executed winemaking programs, protocols, aided in vineyard development, winery design, focused on hiring the region's best talent, and continued crafting some of the world's finest wines.
At Jeff Owens Wine Consulting, we are dedicated and driven to craft singular, expressive, terroir driven wines which speak of their sense of place and compete on the world's highest stage. We want to share this passion and help others craft the best possible wines "from the ground up".
