Family Vineyard Facts
Located in the far northeastern corner of the Napa Valley our vineyards are up the historic Old Toll Road and perched 1000 to 1500 feet above the valley floor.
The property is on the steep slopes and quite literally in the clouds of Mt. St. Helena. Combining one of the most unique mountain-side terroirs in Napa, with the very best vineyard management and vintners we have assembled a premier team of people to produce only the highest quality wine.
Reached by taking the rather harrowing trip 3 miles up through the Palisades range northeast of Calistoga, Knighton Family Vineyards sits atop Jericho Canyon in Calistoga, California, which is becoming known as an epicenter for premier Cabernet Sauvignon. Vintners, past and present, that have produced magnificent cabernets from the area include Rudd Winery, Ramey Cellars, Jericho Canyon Vineyards and Vineyard 29. Volcanic soils, perfect exposure and the mountain climate all combine to provide a one-of-a-kind growing environment.
