A Trois Noix Dinner Party

Jaime Araujo, Owner & Winemaker

Jaime’s family has been making world-class wines in Napa Valley for over 25 years and for most of those years, Jaime was actually living abroad in Europe.  Upon returning to Napa Valley in 2016 to become a vintner, Jaime wanted to create a wine that would reflect her personal journey, and what she loved most about wine: the people and the sense of community.

The name “Trois Noix,” which means “Three Nuts,” is an homage to her love of France, her commitment to using wine as a catalyst for social change and a nod to the next generation of her family.

Mike Tracy, Lead Winemaker

Mike was raised on the Gallo Frei Ranch in Dry Creek Valley where his mother worked as an accountant. From this early experience he was fascinated by vineyards, and always knew he would make wine. Mike graduated from Cornell University in 2012 with a B.S. in Viticulture and Enology. With thirteen commercial vintages throughout Sonoma County, Napa Valley, New Zealand and Argentina, Mike leads all winemaking in partnership with Jaime.

About Trois Noix

Trois Noix began as a collaboration with amazingly talented friends who happened to be fabulous winemakers and grape growers, with the goal of making fresh and precise wines of time and place. 

Standing on that foundation today, we are a bridge between “Established Napa” and “Next Napa,” holding onto that sense of place while inviting as many people as we can to revel with us in our shared love of wine.
