Joel Gott Wines

Joel Gott Wines is a wine company based in St Helena, California, making a broad range of wine from California, Oregon and Washington. It is known for its multi-vineyard and multi-region wines that emphasize varietal character. Since 2009 it has operated with logistical and distribution support from Trinchero Family Estates.

The flagship wine is the Gott Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, which is made from a combination of fruit from south Napa Valley, Howell Mountain and St Helena. The Joel Gott 815 California Cabernet Sauvignon, as with the rest of the range, is priced at a more everyday level and sourced from all over California. It sees around 16 months in American oak.

The range also includes Santa Barbara Pinot Noir, California Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Grenache and Zinfandel, Willamette Valley Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris, and a Washington Riesling and red blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. Wines are made in a number of custom crush facilities around California. Reds are generally fermented in stainless steel tanks, but the use of oak varies throughout the range.
