Producer Information

Established in 1992 by renowned California winemaker Jed Steele, Steele Wines has grown to become one of the most popular wineries in Northern California’s Lake County region. With an extensive range of high-quality, small lot, vineyard-designated wines made from the finest vineyards in Lake and Mendocino Counties, Steele Wines practices true craftsmanship while constantly experimenting with new varietals and diverse sites. Jed Steele has been making wine in California for over 50 years and last year celebrated his 28th anniversary of Steele Wines. His winemaking career began back in 1968 at Stony Hill Vineyard in Napa Valley, where he assisted in the cellar before obtaining his Master’s Degree in Enology from U.C. Davis. He went on to become the winemaker and vineyard manager at Edmeades Winery in Mendocino County’s Anderson Valley for eight years, and then landed the position that would alter the course of his career forever: Jed became the founding winemaker for Kendall Jackson in Lake County. While at Kendall Jackson, Jed Steele developed the concept and style of the Kendall Jackson Vintners Reserve Chardonnay – still one of the most popular Chardonnays in the history of California wine today. Jed also grew the winery to over 1 million cases in just nine vintages, but when the environment became too corporate for his liking, Jed stepped aside to start his own brand – Steele Wines.
