Angelo Owens
Overview
Estate
Angelo Owens Wines is a family-owned and operated winery founded by Jeff and Valerie Owens in Napa Valley. The winery follows a 'ground up' philosophy, working with selected vineyard growers and producing small lots intended to express the character of individual Napa Valley sites. Rather than relying on a single large contiguous estate vineyard, the winery sources fruit from several carefully selected locations.
Climate
Its vineyard sources include mountain and valley locations, with Mt. Veeder representing a high-elevation, cooler site, while other sources offer different exposures and growing conditions. The winery's multi-site approach is intended to capture differences in place and vintage rather than impose one uniform profile.
Vineyards
Angelo Owens works with selected growers and vineyard sites in Napa Valley, including Mt. Veeder, Rutherford, Pritchard Hill, Sage Ridge, Sugarloaf, Upper Range, and Stags Leap District.
Cultivation
The winery emphasizes close relationships with growers and careful vineyard stewardship, with the vineyard and people behind each site central to the wines.
Winery
Jeff Owens leads the winemaking, working in small lots and giving individual vineyard sites a significant role in the final wines. The Cabernet Sauvignon wines are commonly matured in French oak for around 20 months, with the proportion of new oak varying by wine.
Family
Angelo Owens Wines was founded by husband-and-wife team Jeff and Valerie Owens. The winery's identity is strongly family-oriented, with the Knot symbol representing unity, strength, and the enduring ties of family. Their children, Rylan and Declan, are referenced through the winery's Figure 8 Knot Series.
Winemaker
Jeff Owens is the winemaker and co-founder. Before establishing Angelo Owens Wines, he built an extensive Napa Valley career, including work with PlumpJack, CADE, and Odette Estate, where he served as head winemaker. His current approach combines detailed vineyard sourcing with small-lot production and a strong emphasis on site expression.
