At CADE Estate, we believe that winemaking should honor the land, both aesthetically and ecologically. Our philosophy of making luxury wine in harmony with the environment begins in the soil of our estate vineyard where we maintain a painstaking program of natural cultivation—a rewarding program that made us the first organically farmed LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Gold Certified estate winery in the Napa Valley.

Danielle Cyrot | Winemaker
Growing up with a French father, Danielle spent summers as a child in France, where she learned about her family’s winemaking history. Her great-grandfather was the last in a long line of ancestors who owned the Cyrot Vineyard in Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune. She had no plans to carry on her family’s winemaking legacy until she took an introductory winemaking class at the University of California, Davis.
Tyler Martin | Associate Winemaker
Growing up in Moraga, California, Tyler has always been close to the wine country. Spending time tasting and collecting wine with his father, he continued to nurture his interest and knowledge at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. Tyler’s first experience in winemaking came during his internship at Edna Valley Vineyard in San Luis Obispo.
Bobby Kloetzer | Assistant Winemaker
Bobby’s entry into the wine industry was as unexpected as fortuitous. Hailing from Carlsbad, California, his childhood was shaped by an affinity for the outdoors and a curiosity for science that later became the undercurrents of his winemaking philosophy. While attending Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, a spur-of-the-moment decision led him to the Viticulture and Enology program.
Gavin Newsom | Founder
In 1992, Gavin Newsom opened his first business, PlumpJack Wines, combining his passion for wine and his driving entrepreneurial spirit. Over the next decade, the PlumpJack Group grew under his leadership to include the many restaurants, wineries, and retail establishments in the current portfolio. In 2003, Newsom was elected the 42nd Mayor of San Francisco, and in 2019 was sworn in as the Governor of California.
