Jennie Murphy

Owner

After graduating from UC Davis with a degree in Chemistry, Jennie had plans to go in to forensics. Due to a bad economy when she graduated, she had to find a plan B and so took an internship at Korbel Champagne Cellars. She was immediately taken with how winemaking melded art, science, nature and humanity together - she was hooked. Her next opportunity came in the form of an Enologist position at Paul Hobbs Winery, where she was tasked with updating the lab protocols and instruments. As she grew from lab to winemaking roles, she absorbed every lesson and focused on every detail. It was an amazing opportunity to work with world class vineyards and craft multiple wines that garnered 100-point scores from critics. She departed from her role as Director of Winemaking for Paul Hobbs in 2022, after a twelve-year career with the winery, in order to focus on the OG Oxlee Graham Wines. The new label focuses on winemaking areas that exemplify a creative and individualistic spirit.
