Inscription.
In 1880, Finnish sea captain Gustave Niebaum acquired the Inglenook Estate and began building the stone chateau for his winery. His wines became world renowned and contributed to the growing fame of the Napa Valley.

Francis and Eleanor Coppola purchased most of the Niebaum properties in 1975, then reunited the estate with the acquisition of the chateau and remaining vineyard in 1995.
