Join us in honoring the one and only Barry Jackson. We will gather at the beautiful Storrs Winery and Vineyards for an afternoon filled with laughter, memories, and of course, wine. Let’s raise a glass to Barry and celebrate all the joy he brought to our lives. 🍾

Storrs Winery is offering their patio and beautiful outdoor space to host the Celebration of Life for Barry Jackson. Please note, this is a pot-luck style, private event reserved for the Jacksons’ family and friends. This event is free, but space is limited. Please RSVP with the Eventbrite link in this post or in our bio. Due to limited parking at the winery, we ask that you carpool whenever possible and please ensure you have a designated sober driver. 🥂 Eventbrite: https://tinyurl.com/yc63eufc

Bringing shareable finger foods and wine is encouraged and would be much appreciated. In honor of Barry’s fun spirit, we encourage you to wear a Hawaiian or tropical shirt and please dress for outdoor weather. 🌺

If you would like to contribute to the celebration and support Barry’s family in his passing please consider donating to this GoFundMe account: https://gofund.me/a3d144ad. 💛

As many of you have heard, we recently lost our beloved leader, Barry Jackson. He was a father, grandfather, husband, mentor, friend—and a winemaker through and through. Barry didn’t just make wine; he crafted stories in every bottle, pouring his heart into a craft that brought joy to so many. He gave young winemakers, both here in the Santa Cruz Mountains and beyond, the guidance to find their way. The world has dimmed with the loss of such a special person, and his absence is felt deeply by all of us. If you were lucky enough to find yourself at 334 Ingalls St. on an afternoon when Barry was holding court, you would be regaled with stories and libations. Topics could range from Fresno State college days in the 1970’s, to Paul Maison winery in the 80’s, or feeding his son’s football team before games. He was known for his French toast which helped fuel many wins.

Now, as we grieve his loss, we find ourselves navigating a winery without the man who gave it life. There are projects to complete, agreements to be honored, and above all, wine to be made. His meticulous cellar notes guide us now, just as they always have. His daughter, an extraordinary winemaker in her own right, will carry forward his vision. Trained in sparkling wine from UC Davis to Napa and here at Equinox, she will ensure that the heart of Barry’s work lives on.

Equinox will continue. And so will Barry’s legacy—in every bottle, every memory, and every life he touched. For those interested, a GoFundMe link can be found in our bio to support Equinox and the Jackson family during this difficult time.

It is with profound sadness that we share the news of Barry Jackson’s passing. He was a father & grandfather, friend, mentor, husband, and a Winemaker. A Winemaker to his core. He loved to make good wine and for others to enjoy it. He loved to tell a good story (he had so many), over a glass of wine.

If you were lucky enough to find yourself at 334 Ingalls St on an afternoon when Barry was holding court, you would be regaled with stories and libations. Topics could range from Fresno State college days in the 1970’s, to Paul Maison winery in the 80’s, or feeding his son’s football team before games. He was known for his French toast that helped fuel many wins.

He left us on the morning of 9/13/2024. That’s right, Friday the 13th. For those who knew him, this is a beautiful nugget to his story.

He started his own business on April Fool’s Day because he thought it fitting given the journey he was about to embark on. We would all be along for the ride, wife, daughter and son. Our lives tuned to the rhythm of each vintage: grapevines and harvest.

This year is no different. As we grieve for Barry, the winery endures. There are projects/wines to complete, and agreements to be honored. Barry kept meticulous cellar notes for each wine under his care and his daughter is an excellent winemaker. She’s trained in sparkling wine cellars from UC Davis, to Napa, to Equinox.

If you are able, please help support the family by making a donation. https://gofund.me/33ab37ff
