Gary Jaffe has always loved a spectacular glass of wine, and had always dreamed of making his own someday. Stars aligned when he married Pam, had a pair of twin girls, and decided to leave Los Angeles to raise the babies in the beautiful Napa Valley, eventually buying a home with a vineyard. Jaffe Estate Wines slowly grew from a dream into a family business.

We began by making wine we were proud of in small quantities to share with our friends, who became extended family and our customers, who became friends. That hasn’t changed.

Wine has never just been about what is in the glass or the bottle for us. It is about all the things that come with being a wine lover in this beautiful valley - sharing a meal and a moment with people you love; human connection in one of its most ancient forms.

Introducing Vida Jaffe, Jaffe Family Wine’s new president. Following in her parents’ footsteps, Vida is chasing her own passion for wine and spirits by building the next generation of Jaffe’s proud tradition. Her first experience as a vintner was visiting a tasting room on her first field trip with her preschool class, where the children were delighted to learn the magic of blending grape varietals to create even more delicious fruit juice. Her most recent blending experience was guiding the Jaffe Family Wines 2019 vintage of both our flagship bottlings, Metamorphosis and Transformation.With a lot of ideas and energy to spare, she has been listening to our beloved customers/wine family, and is proud to announce exciting changes that represent the future of Jaffe Family Wines.

We are expanding our sourcing to make even more of the wine you love and add more variety to our line, including a limited quantity of our first ever white wine, a Chardonnay we cannot wait to pour for you!

Come visit us at our new tasting location in the heart of downtown Napa, the Studio at Feast it Forward, where we are proud to pour our wine next to other small, family boutique wineries.
