Leah Jorgensen Description

Leah Jorgensen is one of us! She started her career in wine wholesale in NY and then retail, managing a wine shop in DC. After a brief stint at Chrysalis Vineyard in Virginia, she relocated to the West Coast and really blossomed. In Oregon, she worked for early mentor Dick Erath. When he sold Erath to Chateau St. Michelle, she moved to Washington to work on the top tier St. Michelle brands. She then worked for David Adelsheim and Shea before branching out on her own. That' quite a pedigree! Her wines are stunning.

"I focus on site selection first, working almost exclusively with vineyards in the Rogue and Applegate Valleys. I’m lucky to work with incredible growers who understand the significance of managing the vineyard to address the specific chemistries of Cabernet Franc.

I’m after the softer, more fruit driven side of Cabernet Franc, where the more savory qualities of the wine arise as secondary components, and where the sweet tobacco, cedar, smoke, pencil shavings, and herbal notes of anise and tarragon also come through.” She succeeds.
