Shifflett Ranch & Vineyard
The Mayacamas range has a storied history for grape growing; from the foothills to the peaks, grapes grown here make wines that are bright, rich and long-lived. The Shifflett Ranch & Vineyard has been a long-standing fruit source for some of the greatest producers in the Napa Valley. "The Ranch" is in good company here with neighboring Dominus, Trefethen and Mayacamas; focused on growing Bordeaux varieties, with a little Syrah and Sauvignon Blanc sprinkled in.
