Larkmead Vineyards is one of the oldest family-owned wineries in Napa Valley. Originally founded in 1895, the Larkmead estate has been under the stewardship of the Solari-Baker family since 1948. Since that time, the family has steadily farmed, replanted, and nurtured the 115-acre vineyard to produce some of the most recognized wines from Napa Valley.Situated on the floor of northern Napa Valley, the site extends from the facing Mayacamas and Vaca mountain ranges and encompasses multiple soil types; each is specifically planted to clonal-rootstock combinations that comprise our 100% estate grown and produced wines.
In support of Larkmead’s winemaking history, modern facilities were built in 2004, and expanded in 2014, utilizing state of the art equipment and design. Over the past 20 years, Larkmead has focused on Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet-based blends. In this time, Larkmead wines have garnered over 140 scores of 95 points and above – two of which earned a perfect 100-point rating – a testament to the brilliance and quality of the vineyard, our winemaking, and the dedication of the Solari-Baker family’s pursuit of excellence.
