A New Generation of Winemaker
Jonathan Scott Oberlander
Jonathan Scott Oberlander represents a new generation of Oregon winemaker, blending Old World traditions with modern innovation. His passion for wine began at San Diego State University and led him from a career in wine sales to advanced studies in Enology at UC Davis, and hands-on winemaking experience at California State University Fresno's pioneering student winery.
Jonathan further refined his craft at Bernardus Vineyards in Monterey, California, where he worked under respected winemakers and gained extensive experience producing Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Bordeaux varietals. In 2003, he relocated his family to Eugene, Oregon, to join Silvan Ridge, eventually becoming Head Winemaker.
While at Silvan Ridge, Jonathan launched J. Scott Cellars, which became his full-time focus in 2013. Today, J. Scott Cellars is known for producing exceptional Pacific Northwest wines, with numerous vintages earning 90+ point ratings from Wine Enthusiast. In 2020, Jonathan opened the J. Scott Cellars tasting room and wine bar in downtown Eugene, creating a welcoming destination where guests can experience his passion for craftsmanship, hospitality, and outstanding Oregon wine.
