Ehlers Estate produces world-class Bordeaux varietals from their estate vineyard located on the loamy bench soils just north of the town of St. Helena, and offers one of the best “off the beaten path” visitor experiences in the Napa Valley.
“We operate as a small family farm, and our values: sustainability, community, quality, philanthropy, and history, reflect that.” In 1985, passionate for business, Bordeaux-style wines, and giving back, Jean and Sylviane Leducq acquired and began a revitalization of the historic 43-acre Bernard Ehlers estate vineyard and winery, located on the coveted loamy benchlands just north of St. Helena. With Jean Leducq’s passing in 2002, the winery became an asset of the couple’s esteemed Leducq Foundation, and today the farming, winemaking, and stylistic direction is entrusted to winemaker Kevin Morrisey. After replanting the vineyards on what are some of the finest winegrowing soils in the Napa Valley, constructing a new state of the art winery and barrel building, and defining a wine style that is at once Californian and European, Ehlers Estate has come to enjoy a unique position in the Napa Valley: farming organically and biodynamically, producing world class wines, and returning all profits to benefit cardiovascular research around the globe. The winery produces Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The flagship, Cabernet Sauvignon “1886”, is an assemblage from the westernmost Perkins loam parcels and the Aikens loam knoll behind the barrel chai.
