Stewart Cellars, established in 2000 by Michael and Anne Stewart, is a family-owned winery located in Napa Valley. The Stewarts, originally from Houston, Texas, transitioned into the wine industry after purchasing a majority interest in the Juliana Vineyard in Pope Valley in 1999. This vineyard, now owned by Terlato Wines, has been a source for their Cabernet Sauvignon and other varietals. The winery emphasizes handcrafted wines, utilizing indigenous yeasts and maintaining high cleanliness standards, which allows them to avoid fining or filtering. In mid-2022, they expanded their operations by acquiring the Montecillo Vineyard in Sonoma County, known for its organic farming and sought-after fruit. Stewart Cellars produces a range of wines, including Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir, and has a second brand, Slingshot, which offers more affordable options. Their wines are characterized by vibrant flavors and a focus on terroir consistency. The tasting experience is enhanced by their recent establishment of a food and wine venue in Yountville, featuring a courtyard and café, inviting visitors to enjoy their offerings in a pleasant setting.
