David Jeffrey, Winemaker
Calluna has been a longtime dream of David’s, even as he was working for Seagram back in New York City for their corporate treasury staff. His love for old world, classically styled wines began with Bordeaux and Burgundy but were solidified after drinking stunning examples from Napa Valley, Sonoma County and the Santa Cruz Mountains. The desire to create a winery of his own led David to change careers in 2001 at the age of 44 and enroll in Fresno State’s Oenology and Viticulture program. 2 years later he found himself working in the cellar at Chateau Quinault l’Enclos in St Emilion for Dr. Alain Raynaud.
