Jacquelyn St. Martin
Jacquelyn relocated from Austin Texas to St. Helena California to follow her passion for the wine industry. Jackie grew up in Spring Texas, just north of Houston . She obtained a BBA in Marketing from Texas A&M University in 2001. The first years of her professional marketing career were in jewelry merchandising and marketing, as an Assistant Buyer with Bailey Banks & Biddle at Zale Corporation World Headquarters in Las Colinas, Texas and a small but nationally recognized women's fashion boutique in Austin. Jackie realized wine was her destiny after visiting Positano, Italy in 2005 and touring through some of the most storied and renown wine growing regions of Italy. Her passion for wine matured into a full-fledged obsession and professional calling. In 2007, Jackie completed Levels I&II Certification with the International Sommelier Guild through Austin. After meeting the Barnett team & tasting their wines she knew this was her ideal job and recently added an Advanced Certification through WSET to her education. She will proudly tell you that she's a Texan at heart, but that Barnett Vineyards in St. Helena is where she calls home.
