Onesta Wines
Onesta Wines, founded by winemaker Jillian Johnson DeLeon, is dedicated to crafting authentic, single-vineyard Rhône varietals that embody the essence of California's diverse terroirs. With a philosophy rooted in truth and honesty, Onesta seeks to deliver wines with personality and depth, staying true to Mother Nature and the land they cultivate. Their portfolio includes varietals such as Cinsault, Syrah, Grenache Blanc, and Rosé of Cinsault, each reflecting the unique characteristics of their respective vineyards. Notably, Onesta sources fruit from the historic Bechthold Vineyard in Lodi, home to 25 acres of Cinsault planted in 1886—the oldest Cinsault vineyard in the world. These ancient, head-trained, dry-farmed vines produce wines of remarkable concentration and complexity. Onesta's commitment to minimal intervention winemaking ensures that each bottle captures the truth of its vintage, uniting the vines, the land, and the nuances of each growing season. By focusing on sustainable practices and expressing the unique stories of their vineyards, Onesta Wines invites wine enthusiasts to celebrate life with wines that feed the soul.
