Mo<strong>du</strong>s Operandi Cellars<br />

Mo<strong>du</strong>s Operandi Cellars was founded in 2004, <strong>with</strong> just eight barrels<br />

of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Mo<strong>du</strong>s specializes in high impact<br />

and world class wines and is the experimental brand of Winemaker<br />

Jason Moore. The wines have been part of a historical State Dinner at<br />

the White House, paired to celebrity Chef Tom Coliccio’s food at the<br />

Aspen Food and Wine Classic, and have been written into New York<br />

Times best-selling authors novel The Black Box by Michael Connelly.<br />

This, in addition to critic scores in the 90’s and the support of the<br />

winery’s fans and customers, have created a dream come true for<br />

Winemaker and Owner, Jason Moore.<br />

Jason Moore – Owner, Winemaker<br />

Jason Moore is a born and raised Dallas native who grew up in the<br />

fine dining restaurant scene of Dallas, which is where he found his<br />

interest and ultimate passion for wine. Jason moved to Napa in 2002,<br />

to pursue the dream and lofty aspiration of becoming a winemaker.<br />

Three months after moving to Davis, CA to study winemaking at<br />

UC Davis, Jason decided against the classic route of e<strong>du</strong>cation in<br />

exchange for a more self-taught and hands on approach. Now,<br />

10 years into his professional career, Jason has become known for<br />

extremely high end and somewhat experimental techniques and<br />

winemaking, which lead to impressive and beautiful wines <strong>with</strong> true<br />

soul.<br />
