Chiron Wines, established in 2015 by father-son duo Mark McCoy and Bobby Moy, is a boutique winery located in Napa Valley. Bobby, the winemaker, is responsible for sourcing vineyard locations and crafting the wines, while Mark manages marketing and distribution. The winery focuses on hillside vineyards with morning sun exposure, favoring cooler sites to produce intense, balanced fruit. Chiron Wines emphasizes vineyard-designated bottlings, typically producing small lots of 50 cases each, with each wine reflecting personal stories through unique names. The winery's philosophy centers on a gentle winemaking approach, utilizing well-seasoned barrels to enhance the wine's character without overwhelming it with oak.

The tasting experience at Chiron is intimate, with an emphasis on quality over quantity, showcasing a range of varietals including Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon. Visitors can expect a sophisticated yet approachable wine experience that highlights the artistry of winemaking and the unique terroir of Napa Valley.
