Rutherford Hill Winery

Ryan was so knowledgeable and so kind to us. Out of all the wineries we went to, he was the best person we met to help our experience.

My family and I visited Rutherford Hill Winery a couple of years ago, and it was sadly one of our worst wine-tasting experiences. The woman at the front desk was cold, avoided eye contact, and even pretended not to hear my questions. Our tour guide was equally unkind — dismissive and walked off leaving us at the cellar towards the end of the tour. The treatment felt dismissive and biased, leaving us hurt and uncomfortable. I truly hope the winery has since improved and treats all guests with warmth and respect.

Amazing tasting experience with David. The wines were amazing, the view was amazing, the winery was amazing. Highly highly recommended tasting experience.

We had a wonderful afternoon at Rutherford Hill including a tour of their storage cave. Amazing view!

Wonderful experience, highly recommend! Chris was so knowledgeable and made the experience so fun

great scenic and enjoyable wine tasting experience with Susan, who did an outstanding job

My friend and I did a cave tour with Steven and it was very interesting and informative! He was also kind enough to offer to take our photo in all the cool spots along the way. Wine was delicious, tour was fun, and views were incredible. Worth the money!

Great views, good wines, higher prices but service was not par to the premium experience that we hopped for. When we arrived we went to the concierge to find both of them talking amongst themselves right in front of us for almost 5m not greeting or acknowledging our presence. We left thinking maybe we are the wrong place when wandering around trying to find where to go we were approached by some staff that were very courteous and redirected us to the place we first started, after a few more minutes we were greeted by one of the servers that was really thoughtful and explained the tasting options and again we were forwarded to the concierge once again. After some more wait we were directed by them to our new server, that to be fair, was really good throughout the whole tasting, but at the end we were again left waiting not sure quite some time not sure if we should wait more or head out to the exit to settle the bill. We left and clearly upon arrival it was clear that someone should have explained the club options and assist us on the way out.

Great service, amazing newly remodeled outside area for hosting wine tasting, absolutely breathtaking view. We took the top option and had an unobstructed view of Napa valley for ourselves.

A truly memorable experience at Rutherford Hill Winery!
We were hosted by Ryan, who did a fantastic job accommodating our family’s diverse wine preferences. I’m a red wine enthusiast (who will happily enjoy a white), my wife prefers white and just lightly sips reds, and our daughter leans toward white but loves experimenting with new reds. Ryan navigated all of that with ease and curated a tasting that delighted each of us.

The setting was just as spectacular as the wine—perched high on the hill with sweeping views of the valley below. We stayed cool under a canopy of umbrellas while sipping through a generous and varied lineup of wines. Everything we tasted was so good that we ended up joining the wine club on the spot!

The team was so efficient with our order that the shipment nearly beat us home! A huge thanks to Ryan and everyone at Rutherford Hill for an unforgettable afternoon in wine country. We’ll definitely be back!

Rachel is excellent with great knowledge of surroundings. Definitely recommend her when you stop by here for a tasting. If you make reservations for view of the valley, they will also have your personalized greetings printed on tasting list Manu. Great place to take a rest, have some picnic, or just chill. Cave visit is on weekend only.

Need to have a better idea on how to make the tasting a more friendly experience and not acting as the employees don’t want to work there

Wine tasting about hour and a half and thirty minutes for Lord of the rings wine cave tour. Unforgettable experience! Super chill with amazing views, outdoor tasting. Great wine, great hospitality, great education. Walking inside that man-made cave was unreal; like a giant ant hill you can walk through.

I’ve been a member since 2017, and I was very surprised to receive a message this morning stating that my membership would be canceled without my permission.

I clearly communicated that I only wanted to skip this month’s shipment due to financial issues—not cancel my membership. However, I received a cancellation confirmation email shortly afterward.

This is not what I requested. Please have a manager contact me as soon as possible to clarify and resolve this issue.

Thank you.

Our wine tasting and wine pick up were great experiences! Every employee was so helpful and patient listening to our questions and requests. It was a wonderful, special time despite the rain ☔️ drizzle. Kudos to Stephanie Jacob’s!!! She is continuing the delicious wines we all love at Rutherford Hill.
