The Building

As the first winery production facility built after the repeal of prohibition, Merryvale occupies a unique place in the history of Napa Valley and California wine history.

Situated on Highway 29 in beautiful St. Helena, the iconic building that houses Merryvale Vineyards has long been established as a premier winemaking facility. With roots dating back to the early days of fine wine production, Merryvale was the winemaking home to such luminaries as Robert and Peter Mondavi, the Christian Brothers, and H. William Harlan.

Merryvale’s proprietors, the Schlatters, are traditionalists with vision, committed to preserving the winery’s rich past while forging a path of winemaking innovation. Alongside Winemaker Andrew Wright they have sharpened their focus on Bordeaux varieties, the wines for which Napa is most renowned.
