Newton Vineyard is Napa’s iconic mountain estate, founded in 1977 by Peter Newton on Spring Mountain’s steep hillsides whose volcanic, well-draining soils held the key to the wine quality he sought. We continue to stay true to Peter’s ambitious quest of creating wines that deliver a rare & fresh expression of the Napa Valley through unfiltered, truthful terroir expression and a deep commitment to nature.

Newton started with Cabernet Sauvignon & Merlot plantings, that yielded the first Puzzle Cabernet Sauvignon (1992 vintage) in 1994. Created for nearly 30 years, this is the flagship of the house, representing the mountain terroir of the Napa Valley, a singular, historic wine with a vivacious personality and exceptional drinkability.

To further unlock the land’s full potential, Newton embraced Unfiltered winemaking that involved a great deal of time and meticulousness. Released in 1990, Newton’s iconic Unfiltered Chardonnay became the first Napa Valley wine to indicate this method on the label.

Pursuing even deeper terroir exploration, in 2016, Newton released three exceptional Single Vineyard Cabernets and two Single Vineyard Chardonnays, revealing the character of each individual estate through the best blocks, each season.

Committed to sustainable practices from the beginning, Newton is under new ownership and aims to express nature with precision, pursuing a natural, patient approach in the vineyards and winery. The estate holds the Napa Green Land & Winery certifications, and all three estate vineyards at Spring Mountain, Mt. Veeder and Carneros are certified Organic by the CCOF.
