Oenophiles with a taste for the contemporary now have the chance to snap up a modern vineyard estate in the heart of Napa Valley.
The $21 million wine country spread is located in the town of St. Helena, California, and for those interested in making their own bottles, the 13.6-acre vineyard is planted with more than eight acres of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes and more than five acres of Zinfandel vines, some dating back to 1935 and 1979. Cyd Greer of Coldwell Banker Brokers of the Valley holds the listing.
A gas fireplace anchors the great room, which is topped off by a custom chandelier.

At the heart of the property is a 7,500-square-foot estate that offers five bedrooms and 7.5 baths. Field Architecture designed the abode, with interiors courtesy of Shawback Design. The two collaborated on a cedar-wrapped home with a light-filled interior, emphasized by the use of polished concrete floors, plaster walls, and wire-brushed white-oak cabinetry throughout. The great room makes an impression with its open-beam cathedral ceiling and a custom hand-blown glass chandelier over the dining table. A pop of color is added in the blue butler’s pantry, which includes wine storage and a built-in espresso machine.

Gas fireplaces keep things cozy in both the formal living room and the family room, while hallways lined with floor-to-ceiling windows lead to the sleeping quarters. The primary suite sports vineyard views and a private terrace for basking in the warm NorCal weather. The additional four bedrooms get their own bathrooms, too. The main residence is completed by a laundry/mud room that draws on the same rich blue tone found in the pantry.
The pool and spa are accompanied by a pool house that can double as a gym.

Outside, there’s a covered limestone dining terrace with overhead heat lamps for taking the nip off chilly nights and a lounge area for watching TV. The home and its ancillary structures are built in a U-shape around the pool and spa. The pool house’s central room can double as a gym, with a custom ocean mural along one wall. There’s a full bathroom as well, along with an outdoor shower for quick rinse-offs.
Farther out on the grounds, you’ll find a 1,300-square-foot barn with massive pocket doors and a custom glass and metal chandelier that makes a statement even from several yards off. While the building is meant as a nod to the land’s agricultural roots, this one is for play rather than work: It’s set up for lounging and dining inside, with a wet bar for mixing up drinks and an outdoor fire pit perfect for making s’mores.
