Jesse Rodriguez

Sommelier
Addison at The Grand Del Mar

 

Rodriguez is Addison at The Grand Del Mar's head sommelier, overseeing the overall maintenance of its wine program, staff training and guest education.

 

Jesse has painstakingly put together Addison’s vast wine collection, which features the gamut of fine wines, from top California vintage cult wines, to new discoveries from South Africa and South America, to the classic wines of France, Italy and Spain – all housed in Addison’s Paul Wyatt designed 2,500-bottle custom wine room.

Previously with Napa Valley’s venerable French Laundry, he was part of the culinary team that helped that restaurant become the only dining venue in California to garner a Three Michelin Star rating. Rodriguez was also California sales manager for ZD Wines, the estate manager for Phoenix-based Alliance Beverage Distributing Company and a sommelier for The Phoenician in Scottsdale, AZ.

He is accredited by the Court of Master Sommeliers and professionally recognized by the Society of Wine Educators.
