Liparita 1 Items

Liparita Cellars was established in the early 1980s on Howell Mountain by owner Bob Burrows and winemaker and vineyardist Gove Celio. When the original vineyard was planted back in the late 1800s, it was named Liparita, or "little Lipari" because of the tremendous similarity between the red and white soils of Howell Mountain and those of the volcanic Lipari Islands off the coast of Sicily. Liparita's wines are still created using fruit from some of the most unique and exciting vineyards in the Napa Valley. Liparita Cellars plans to produce 10,000 case of wine - 4500 of Cabernet Sauvignon, 3500 Merlot and approximately 1000 cases each of Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
