Early history

Jackson Family Wines was founded in 1982 by Jess Jackson and his wife Barbara Banke.[5][6] The first vintage of Kendall-Jackson wine, Vintner's Reserve Chardonnay, was released in 1983. It was aged in French oak barrels.[7]

Jackson expanded into Australia in 2000 with the acquisition of 172ha Eringa Park vineyard, which was renamed Yangarra Estate Vineyard.[20] That same year, the company acquired Matanzas Creek Winery in Sonoma Valley.[21] Jackson continued its international expansion with the purchase of Château Lassègue in Bordeaux, France in 2003.[22] La Jota Vineyard Co. on Howell Mountain was acquired by Jackson in 2005.[23] In 2006, the company acquired Byron Winery, Freemark Abbey and Arrowood winery in Santa Maria Valley for $97 million.[24][25] Also in 2006, Jackson acquired Murphy-Goode Estate Winery in Alexander Valley.[26]

Jackson Family Wines planted Périgord truffle spores in its hazelnut and white oak orchard in 2011. Its first truffle harvest in 2017 produced 17 fungi.[27] The company acquired Hickinbotham Clarendon Vinyard in South Australia in February 2012.[28] The following June, Jackson acquired Ramal West Vineyard in the Sonoma Coast.[29] In November 2012, Jackson Family Wines acquired the property that contained Richard's Grove and Saralee's Vineyard.[30]
