The Skalli family is pleased to announce that it will be selling its Napa Valley winery; St. Supéry Estate
vineyards and Winery, to Chanel, Inc. Robert Skalli states "I am delighted to hand over St. Supery to such a
well-regarded company that understands luxury brands and will continue to enhance this special property. I
am confident that they will continue my vision of a Napa Valley Chateau, crafting world class estate wines,
and will build on that foundation, ever improving quality.”
Robert Skalli first purchased over 1530 acres in the Napa Valley in 1982. In 1985 he purchased an additional
52 acres in Rutherford, the heart of Napa Valley where he designed and built the estate winery. St. Supéry
has grown into a world-class winery, garnering praise in both domestic and international markets. Owning all
of their vineyards and directing every aspect of the grape-growing and winemaking process allows St Supéry
to produce only the finest Napa Valley wines.
The sale will be completed later this month. There is no significant change in operations or management
anticipated. Demeter Group and Rothschild acted as financial advisors to St Supéry on the transaction.
St. Supéry Estate Vineyards & Winery is a sustainably farmed, estate winery in Napa Valley, California. St.
Supéry Estate specializes in Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Sauvignon, with more than 500 acres of sustainably
farmed, Napa Green certified vineyards. Its award-winning wines are available from local retailers, at
