Read About Winemaker
With over 15 years in the wine industry, Jarreau’s journey began with a vineyard internship, leading to a degree in Chemistry with a concentration in Enology, and on to global experience from Oregon to South Africa, New Zealand, and Austria. Since joining Brooks, she has advanced from Grower Liaison to Associate Winemaker, collaborating closely with Chris Williams to enhance the Brooks portfolio, focusing on nuanced, age-worthy wines. “Brooks is a unique winery in the American wine industry,” shares Claire, “focusing on three of my passions: regenerative farming, site-specific Riesling, and Eola-Amity Pinot Noir. My joining the team here in 2014 was a serendipitous opportunity for both myself and the winery, and I am thrilled to continue focusing on these shared pursuits in the vintages ahead.”
