Jones Family Vineyards was established in 1996 as a family run winery with the singular focus to produce the finest cabernet based wines from our special vineyards. Our location on a south facing hillside between St. Helena and Calistoga in the Northern Napa Valley provides the ideal combination of soil and climate for the development of Cabernet Sauvignon. Vineyard manager David Abreu, and winemakers Heidi Barrett and Thomas Rivers Brown have worked to maximize the potential of our unique location to produce two outstanding wines, our Jones Family Vineyards Cabernet, and a cabernet blend wine, The Sisters.Rick Jones is a life long lover of wine who developed a passion for grapes while living in France in the 1970’s. After returning to the States he made wine on occasion with friends. In between grape stomps he had successful careers at McKinsey & Company and Safeway.

After retiring from Safeway to spend more time with Sally, he realized that retirement in the traditional sense was not his style. As a result, Rick founded Jones Family Vineyards in 1996 as a family run partnership and continues an active role in its operation serving as CEO. Never one to slow down, Rick is highly involved with the Napa Valley community serving on the Board of St. Helena Hospital Foundation and the Board of the Napa Valley Vintners, as well as Raising a Reader in Silicon Valley and the San Francisco Zoo. His most beloved role is as Pop-Pop to his three granddaughters.

Stephanie now works side by side with Heather on all aspects of running the winery day to day. Stephanie and Daniel Bailey were married at the Vineyard in October 2002, allowing Sally's ultimate party planning dreams to come to life!

Madeline and Lindsey Bailey are Stephanie and Dan’s daughters and are the first two members of the third generation. While well under 21, each have a wine named after them that mom and dad have in safe keeping for them!

Winemaker: Thomas Rivers Brown

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.
