JaM Cellars Named Wine Marketer of the Year by LuxeSF

Napa, CA (April 1, 2019) – JaM Cellars has been named “Wine Marketer of the Year” in the 2019 Rising Wine Stars Awards by Luxury Marketing Council of San Francisco, and received the honor at the 2019 Wineries Boot Camp at Yountville’s Lincoln Theater on March 28th. Based in Napa Valley, JaM Cellars is the producer of Butter Chardonnay, one of the fastest-growing chardonnays in the country, as well as California Candy Dry Rosé, JaM Cabernet Sauvignon, and Toast Sparkling wines.

The LuxeSF Rising Wine Star Awards acknowledge wine industry brands and experts who represent the next era of California’s wine industry. The “Wine Marketer of the Year” award is presented to the company that best implements creative new ideas and innovative thinking in wine marketing, and plays a central role in changing the face of the industry. JaM Cellars, bucking industry trends and demystifying the wine aisle in the process, creates and promotes accessible, easy-to-love wines for any occasion. Available nationwide, JaM formulates strategic, targeted, and interactive marketing campaigns for a host of diverse markets to drive brand awareness and both trade and consumer sales.

“We are honored to receive this industry recognition from LuxeSF,” said JaM Cellars Founder and CEO, John Anthony Truchard. “We are proud to create high-quality wines that over-deliver in their price point, and in doing so, we have built a wine brand that has been broadly embraced across the country. We have an exceptional group of talent, and our vision for marketing has always been tied to the fun and unique ways in which our wines fit into our consumers’ everyday lives. It has been a joy to see people respond so enthusiastically to Butter Chardonnay, California Candy Dry Rosé, JaM Cabernet Sauvignon, and Toast Sparkling.”

“At JaM Cellars, we want to connect with wine drinkers every single day—whether that’s at home on the couch, in the grocery store, at a fun new restaurant, or their favorite music festival,” said Sarah Montague, Chief Marketing Officer at JaM Cellars. “Traditional wine marketing can be quite polarized—either education-oriented for an affluent, educated wine drinker, or focused on value for an emerging millennial demographic. Instead, we’re presenting seasoned wine drinkers and non-wine drinkers with quality, premium wines that are easy to understand and enjoy, placing them in authentic settings and letting people enjoy them their own way. Together, JaM wines, music, and the people you love create delicious memories—our partnerships with iHeartRadio, BottleRock Napa Valley, and other festivals across the country help bring that to life.”

After almost a decade crafting ultra-premium wines in the Napa Valley, they decided to make easy-to-love wines that are perfect for everyday celebrations as well as special occasions.
