Estate Vineyard Acreage
GRIGSBY VINEYARD Located at the northwest corner of the Silverado Trail and Yountville Crossroad, the vineyard soil is a light clay-loam, sprinkled with small river-rocks. With its proximity to the Stags Leap District, the vineyard receives cooling breezes most afternoons, originating from San Pablo Bay. The vineyard is farmed with the highest quality considerations and fruit clusters are thinned to prevent crowding or shading for optimal color and flavor development. COLLINETTA VINEYARD The Coombsville vineyard in the area east of Napa is much cooler, with rocky soils on gentle slopes. Much cooler than Yountville, the fruit ripens later but with more color density and structure than its counterpart 10 miles to the North.
