About Charbay Winery & Distillery

Domaine Charbay has made small-lot wine and distilled spirits on Spring Mountain since 1993, making it one of the original Napa Valley craft distilleries still in operation. The Karakasevic family, drawing on 13 generations of winemaking and distilling experience, handles every stage in-house, from fermenting and fortifying to distilling and aging, at their hidden property roughly 15 minutes from downtown St. Helena.

Rather than table wine, the estate's output centers on fortified wine and aged brandy: Distillers' Port and Still House Port alongside Charbay Brandy No. 83 and No. 89. Visits are intentionally small-scale, capped at seven guests per appointment and typically held Saturdays at 11 a.m., preserving what the family calls hospitality from how wineries used to be.
