It's been a non stop flurry of fermenting and distilling over the last 27+ years. Marko, who has apprenticed under his father since age 10, has graduated to Master Distiller level. He now carries on the family heritage with the many wines and spirits of Charbay.
Join us for a tasting of the current wine based releases. Learn about the art of distilling beside one of our Alambic pot stills. And we'll share how we make our ports with the brandy that we distill here on Spring Mountain.
Make time to enjoy a cigar with a glass of port or 2003 Cabernet - picnic tables also available by reservation, weather permitting. |

Charbay Visit: $20
Presently we're tasting 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon (Oakville), Distillers' Port made with our own brandy, Green Tea Aperitif and Pomegranate 'Port' ...a very rare treat.
Due to California state law, we are not able to pour Charbay spirits. Regrettably, we do not have Charbay Spirits at the St. Helena Still House.

What's happening at the "Still on the Hill"
Aperitif Cocktails
Learn how we make our unique and tasty wine cocktail served over ice and perfect when friends drop in - ready to pour, ready to drink!
If you love Sauternes, you'll never forget the Charbay 1983 Sauvignon Blanc. (Available only here). We're down to the last 11 cases so it's not part of the pouring anymore. If you've sipped it, you know this is the time to pick some up.
Port and Cigars- We're cigar friendly!
Take a break and enjoy a cigar with a glass of Charbay. Sit outside, enjoy the peace & quiet of Spring Mountain. We have a stash of fine cigars so you can be spontaneous! Weather permitting.
