Oak Knoll AVA

  • Just south of Yountville, Oak Knoll is bound by the Napa River to the east and the Mount Veeder AVA to the west.
  • Marine influence from the San Pablo Bay makes Oak Knoll a “sweet spot,” with temperatures averaging 10°F cooler than Upper Napa Valley.
  • Oak Knoll typically has the longest growing season in Napa Valley.
