Welcome to Elkhorn Peak Cellars
Elkhorn Peak Cellars is a family-owned micro-winery tucked into the southeastern hills of Napa Valley, specializing in Pinot Noir. A hidden gem that brings a down-to-earth spirit to world-class Napa winemaking.
“For 40 years I’ve been completely immersed in growing grapes in this terrior, I live on this land as well as farm it. Our 8-acre vineyard sits high atop Jamieson Canyon, Napa Valley’s sweet spot for Pinot Noir. The area is heavily planted today, but we planted the first vines here back in 1983.”

Estate Vineyards
It all starts with vibrant, living soil—because healthy soil grows healthy vines. Our farming philosophy is rooted in soil health, and we work by hand, with heart, and always with the future in mind. A deep commitment to organic practices and biodiversity guides everything we do, nurturing the vitality of our soil, our vines, and the surrounding ecosystem. Since 1983, we’ve taken pride in being artisanal winegrape growers and dedicated stewards of the land.
Small Lot Wines
Handcrafted in ultra-limited quantities, our estate-grown wines—especially our award-winning Pinot Noirs—are available only through our website and Wine Club. Members enjoy first access to our most sought-after and special-release bottlings.
