About Paoletti Estates Winery
Paoletti Estates Winery bears the Italian-heritage Paoletti family surname — placed directly on a Calistoga estate that the family has farmed since 1998. The Silverado Trail property sits in the Calistoga appellation, Napa Valley's warmest growing zone, where hot days and volcanic soils produce Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot of concentrated fruit and generous warmth.
The Paoletti family's Italian-heritage naming reflects their commitment to personal accountability: the family name on the label means the family is personally invested in every bottle's quality. The daily walk-in tasting room on Silverado Trail is dog-friendly, picnic-welcoming, and family-hospitable — the Italian family's genuine hospitality expressed as wine country welcoming.
The Calistoga location, at the northern end of the Silverado Trail, gives Paoletti a warm-climate terroir identity that distinguishes its Cabernet and Merlot from cooler-appellation Napa wines.
