Byron Wines

December 07, 2017

Born and raised in Santa Barbara County, Jonathan Nagy grew up in the region now regarded among California’s top places for cool-climate wines. He joined Byron Winery in 2001, working with winery founder, and pioneering Santa Barbara vintner, Ken Byron Brown. The two bonded quickly over their fascination with Pinot Noir’s ability to express singularity of site and their shared commitment to bringing critical focus to Santa Barbara wines.
 

Today, Jonathan is focused on Byron’s original charter to make site-expressive wines that underscore the distinct signatures of Sta. Rita Hills and Santa Maria Valley. 
 

“Our single vineyard approach guides my desire to express the character of the grape as it responds to a particular site,” explains Jonathan. “It’s fascinating how Pinots can showcase such different personalities from vineyard to vineyard, or even block to block.”
