Founded in 1983 by grower and owner Ken Nerlove, Elkhorn Peak Cellars is a family-owned micro-winery nestled high atop Jamieson Canyon in the southeastern hills of Napa Valley. As early pioneers in what is now recognized as Napa’s sweet spot for Pinot Noir, the Nerlove family has spent over four decades living on and farming their 8-acre estate vineyard. Combining a down-to-earth spirit with world-class winemaking, Elkhorn Peak brings a refreshing, authentic approach to Napa Valley wine, specializing in handcrafted, estate-grown Pinot Noirs.
Rooted in a deep commitment to organic practices, soil health, and biodiversity, Elkhorn Peak operates as dedicated stewards of the land, crafting under 1,000 cases per year. Their hands-on, artisanal philosophy extends into the broader community through family leadership in the Micro-Winery Guild—an organization co-founded by Elise Nerlove to champion independent, family-run grape growers. Sold almost exclusively directly through their website and wine club, Elkhorn Peak Cellars offers wine lovers an intimate connection to genuine Napa Valley farming traditions and uncompromised, small-batch craftsmanship.
