A most memorable tasting experience always: exceptional wines, a superbly knowledgeable team, and beautiful tasting room. Joseph Jewell Winery consistently over delivers and exceeds expectations by offering superior customer service, ethereal wines ranging from Ritchie Vineyard Chardonnay to single vineyard Pinot Noirs that can age beautifully yet be delicious when young. Highest compliments to winemaker Adrian for his stellar hospitality, dedicated artistry, and resourcefulness in finding terrific grapes from a broad range of appellations. Grateful Cheers to Joseph Jewell Winery!

Had a great experience at Joseph Jewell wines. April at the tasting room was very knowledgeable and welcoming. The chardonnays and pinot noirs were excellent and we even had an opportunity to try a pet nat vermentino that was very interesting. Really enjoy their wines and can’t wait to go back.

We had a tasting with April and she was fantastic! Very warm and welcoming, incredibly knowledgeable, and very funny as well. Our whole experience with her was so relaxed and fun, with delicious wine on top of it. We will come back anytime we're in town and highly recommend others do too. It was great! Thank you April!

This is a gem in Forestville. The pinot here is second to none and the only thing better is the amazing staff. April is such a great host/tasting manager with a breadth of knowledge about wine that blows me away. She immediately made us feel comfortable and welcome.We are now members!

My husband and I had a wonderful Joseph Jewell pinot noir at JG Skyhigh in Philadelphia and stopped in Forestville last week for a tasting. Wonderful wines; lovely experience. April is the perfect host--friendly, knowledgeable, kind--the single vineyard pinot noirs and the chardonnay were amazing, among the best we've ever had... easy to like and yet complicated. We are trying hard not to drink the bottles we brought home immediately! We were especially fortunate as we got to meet and thank Adrian as well! Perfect.

So glad I made a trip out to Forestville this weekend to do some tasting. I had wanted to visit Joseph Jewell after reading about the Vermentino Pet-Nat that made a Sonoma County top 100 list, and it did not disappoint. The other wines were lovely as well (first time trying wine made from Humboldt County fruit!) but even better was April, the tasting room manager, who was the best wine educator I've had in a long, long time. She knew how to "read the room" to gauge the right amount of information to give different groups and made the tasting fun and interesting while also educational.

Joseph Jewell was (without question) - my favorite five star find of 2022.Why?They produce amazing value driven wine and staffed by friendly people who have passion and driven to make you feel like you're their only customer. We discovered Joseph Jewell back this past spring. Oddly enough, it was our friends from Nebraska who suggested we take a drive out and have a tasting. From my first sip I knew immediately their wine is special. April was our hostess for the afternoon, she was filled with a vast knowledge of the industry and along with her quick wit and sense of humor made our experience super enjoyable and we left wanting more.The wanting more part of this story I jumped on and joined their wine club. Joseph Jewell makes a point of selling high end quality wine at a much lower price than other producers at similar quality. They also stock a few surprises that are hard to find anywhere else, such as a beautiful pinot noir with grapes sourced from Humboldt County and zinfandel that isn't "jammy" but structured more in a style of a bigger bolder wine that can easily stack up to a ribeye. If you're into sparkling, do yourself a favor and try theirs-they have one that's bottled in a style that is unique and different along with a more traditional that you (are probably) more used to tasting. If you're a fan of small production wine and stocks wine that will WOW the most discerning wine drinker, this is your place.

We enjoyed the 2018 Bucher for Christmas and it was fantastic! We need to buy more.
