Summary
At the foothills of the Coombsville caldera with majestic Mt. George as a backdrop, Faniani Vineyards is a shining example of what makes Napa Valley’s coolest young appellation so special. With its quiet country lanes, family-owned vineyards, and timeless wine country charm, Coombsville offers the feel of old-school Napa—a neighborhood-like enclave that drew the current owners to this picturesque setting just minutes from downtown Napa.
Spanning 10± acres with sweeping 360° views, this exceptional property includes 5± acres of Cabernet Sauvignon, planted starting in 2014 with four distinctive clones. The vineyard is sustainably farmed, Tier 1 certified by the Napa County Water Board, and Fish Friendly Farming certified, producing low yielding, quality fruit under the stewardship of a trusted professional farming team that has managed the vineyard since its inception.
Coombsville’s horseshoe-shaped caldera contributes to its unique terroir—rocky, well-drained soils rich in volcanic ash, and a cooler climate that promotes a longer growing season. These elements combine to yield beautifully structured, complex wines. Surrounded by esteemed neighbors including Haynes, Ackerman, Duhig, and Tournesol, Faniani Vineyards sits in good company within one of the most sought-after appellations.
The property provides a robust infrastructure, including two reliable wells, 20,000 gallons of water storage across four tanks, a wind machine and advanced Adcon weather monitoring systems to protect from frost. A seasonal creek bisects the land, adding both beauty and natural character.
A ranch-style home featuring four bedrooms offers immediate livability, with water rights already permitted for a guest house or pool house. A classic barn and additional structures present further opportunities—whether enhancing the existing residence or creating a dream estate tailored for entertaining and vineyard living.
With its combination of proven viticulture, sustainable practices, scenic beauty, and flexible development potential; Faniani Vineyards represents a rare opportunity to own and cultivate in one of Napa Valley’s most authentic and respected sub-appellations.

Virtual Tour
Napa
Napa is an old city by California standards, founded in 1847. It’s a place with a colorful past - a jumping-off point for 49ers bound for the gold rush, birthplace of famous leather, and neighbor to some of the most prestigious vineyards in the world. For the past 30 to 40 years, the City of Napa has been in transition. The city that was once known for its tanneries, prune processing and State hospital is now more known for its hospitality, fine food, and luxury hotels. While yesterday’s jobs came largely in heavy industrial pursuits at Kaiser Steel, Basalt Rock, Napa Pipe, and Mare Island Shipyard, today’s workforce is mostly white collar and the economy is increasingly based on tourism. Today Napa is becoming a vibrant and modern town with a respect for its past. You will find visually stimulating contemporary architecture just down the road from our protected historic districts, home to some of northern California's finest Victorian homes. Minutes from our many safe and comfortable neighborhoods are the popular Main Street "Restaurant Row," the West End, and the Oxbow District. Our award-winning "living river" flood protection project has made Napa safer while enhancing the ecosystem and providing stimulus to the economy and quality-of-life benefits. Napa is a city with a low crime rate, a high standard of living, clean air, and nearly perfect weather.
