Silver Stag Winery is situated in the Coombsville district, northeast of Napa, California. Founded by Harry and Ellen Parsley, the winery is named after a stag that appeared near their home, which looked silver in certain light. The vineyard spans just under 5 acres, focusing primarily on Cabernet Sauvignon, with smaller amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The cooler climate of Coombsville allows for a longer hang time, leading to later harvests. The winery, which has been producing wine for over 20 years, emphasizes high-quality, low-production Cabernet Sauvignon, with a typical annual output of around 2,000 cases. They also produce a limited Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon in exceptional years. The wines are aged longer than most, often 4 to 5 years before release, and showcase a range of rich flavors and aromas. While Silver Stag Winery is not open for public tastings, it maintains a focus on quality winemaking, reflecting the unique characteristics of the Coombsville AVA. Visitors can order wines directly from their website, which includes library selections from past vintages.
