Louis M. Martini Winery

Louis M. Martini has been producing wines for over 90 years, crafting Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley vineyards. Founded by Louis M. Martini, who built his winery in Napa Valley in 1933 at the Repeal of Prohibition, the winery's legacy continued through his son Louis P. Martini and today's leadership under Michael Claypool. The winery operates a restored tasting facility in St. Helena offering tasting flights and culinary experiences.

In 1899, 12-year-old Louis M. Martini set out from Genoa to work for his father's seafood business in San Francisco. He later moved to Napa Valley in 1933, where he built his winery, becoming one of only five winemakers to do so at the Repeal of Prohibition. He selected Napa for its unmatched grape quality and recognized Cabernet Sauvignon as the most promising variety. He taught the business to his son, Louis Peter, who continued the family legacy of advancements in winegrowing and winemaking. Today's leadership is under Michael Claypool.
