About Ellman Family Vineyards
Ellman Family Vineyards places the Ellman family surname directly on a Napa Valley wine project — a simple declaration that this is the family's wine, made from their own vineyard land, shaped by their own palates and values. The naming is personal accountability in its most direct form: if the wine is good, the family deserves credit; if it falls short, the family bears the responsibility.
The estate produces Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley vineyard sources with a winemaking approach shaped by the family's investment in the quality of their own name. Long-term relationships with specific vineyard blocks and the kind of patient winemaking that reflects personal rather than commercial timelines define the Ellman approach.
The appointment-only tasting room offers the personal encounter appropriate to a family estate where the owners care about every visitor's experience as much as they care about every barrel.
