Chimney Rock is an estate winery in Napa Valley’s Stags Leap District, founded by retired beverage industry professionals Hack and Stella Wilson, with winemaking at the estate since 1980. Now owned by the Terlato Family, it is led by winemaker and general manager Elizabeth Vianna. The winery focuses on estate-grown, single-vineyard and winery-exclusive wines, particularly terroir-driven Cabernet Sauvignon from its Palisades setting. Its limited-production bottlings include vineyard-designated Cabernet Sauvignons, single-barrel wines and library vintages. Chimney Rock also offers vineyard tours and curated tastings. The estate has been associated with Napa Green’s effort to eliminate Roundup, although the available information does not specify its current certifications or broader sustainability practices.
