Wine and Spirits - , California, United States
Jada Vineyard & Winery is located on Vineyard Drive in the heart of the Templeton Gap. The site was chosen for calcareous shale soils and cool coastal influences. After selling grapes to a handful of premium wineries in the area, Jack and Robyn Messina pursued their ultimate goal of making their own wine with winemaker Scott Hawley. They are proud to present handcrafted Bordeaux and Rhone style blends.
