Earthshine Wines, located in Napa Valley, is owned by Shawna Miller, who transitioned into winemaking after a serendipitous visit to the region. Initially working at Sterling Vineyards, she gained experience through various harvests in New Zealand and Australia, eventually becoming the head winemaker at Luna Vineyards until its dissolution in 2021. The establishment of Earthshine was prompted by requests from Luna's customers to continue producing wine. Earthshine Wines offers a diverse range of products, including sparkling wines and robust Cabernet Sauvignon, with an annual production of around 500 cases. The name "Earthshine" reflects a connection to lunar themes, paying homage to Luna Vineyards. Shawna's wines are characterized by vibrant flavors and a focus on varietals like Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon. Visitors can taste Earthshine wines at Mia Carta Wine Lounge in downtown Napa, which features a unique ambiance and a selection of boutique Napa Valley producers. The lounge offers both indoor and outdoor tasting experiences, and private tastings with Shawna can be arranged. For more information, interested parties can visit the Earthshine Wines website.
