Lampyridae Vineyards, Mt. Veeder
Twenty-five hundred feet above the floor of the Napa Valley, sits Lampyridae Vineyards, the highest elevation vineyard on Mt. Veeder. In 1996, the Derr's purchased and developed the property that sits just below the peak of Mt. Veeder into 11 Acres of vineyards. High above the fog layer, the cooler days and warmer nights yield ideal ripening conditions for premium wine grapes.
Lampyridae Vineyards has been growing wine grapes since 1998. The vineyards, which are meticulously managed by our foreman Edgar Yancor, are composed of 11 planted acres - 8 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon, 1 acre of Syrah, 1 acre of Grenache and 1 acre of Zinfandel. Our clients include Beringer Vineyards, Fontanella Family Winery, Schulz Cellars ,Kind Cellars, Biale Vineyards, Blackbird Winery and Rudd Oakville Estate. We have partnered with Aaron Pott to present both a Lampyridae Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon and a Red Wine and with David Yorgensen to present our Lampyridae Vineyards Syrah and soon to be released Grenache.
