LITHOLOGY The study of the formation, composition, and classification of rocks.
Napa Valley is a tale of fire and ash, molten rock, and explosive geological forces that etched their mark upon the land millennia ago. Over time, this substance has weathered and decomposed, creating soil that is rich in minerals and well-drained — the perfect conditions for exceptional grapevines to thrive. In these unique soils, our acclaimed winemakers dig a little deeper to create a distinguished collection of wines, each a powerful testament to the earth’s ability to shape and refine the flavors in your glass.

Our Story We draw inspiration from Napa Valley’s ancient terrain.
At Lithology, we draw inspiration from Napa Valley’s ancient terrain, crafting
wines as layered as the soils from which they emerge. Rooted in the original
stone building on Meadowood Lane, our winery is a testament to our commitment
to tradition and innovation. Our grapes are sourced from esteemed vineyards in
Oakville, Rutherford, Stags Leap District, St. Helena, and Russian River
Valley, where warm days and cool nights foster the ideal conditions for
producing world-class Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Sauvignon Blanc, and
Chardonnay.
