Silverado Vineyards is located east of Yountville, California in the Stags Leap District of Napa Valley. Ron and Diane Miller chose to purchase land with existing vineyards in the mid-1970s after a long time romance with the Valley.[1] Although the Millers' original intention was to only grow grapes, it wasn't long before they began construction of their own winery on the property in 1981.[2] Architect Dick Keith designed the old California mission style structure, which is often mistaken for an actual restoration.[citation needed] The winery has acquired a total of seven family owned vineyards located in various districts throughout the Valley. Silverado produces Sauvignon blanc, Chardonnay, Merlot, Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon.[3]

The previous owners of the vineyard were the See family of See's Candies.[4]
