Jack, a Northern Virginia native, has dedicated over 40 years to caring for animals as a veterinarian at McLean Animal Hospital. A longtime wine enthusiast, he took his passion a step further in 2006 by establishing a vineyard on a piece of land he had owned since 1983. Since then, he has balanced his time between veterinary care and cultivating exceptional grapes. Jack and his wife, Jeanne, have been happily married for over 35 years. Together, they have three children—Caroline, Jeb, and Jamie—and share their home with two beloved dogs, Henni (a Welsh Corgi) and Dixie (a Pudlepointer). When it comes to wine, Jack’s favorite is the Williams Gap 2019 Red Blend, a testament to his dedication and love for winemaking.
