12 Best Wineries in Rutherford

“Visited Cakebread on 12/20/24 for a tasting tour and it was absolutely incredible! The property is simply amazing and our host, Charlie was truly a pleasure to listen to! I loved all the wines tasted and bought the bottle of the Pinot Noir!
Thank you so much Charlie for showing us a great time!“

“Round Pond Estate offers an exceptional virtual wine-tasting experience that truly exceeded our expectations. Christina's outstanding customer service made us feel welcome and valued. She is incredibly knowledgeable about their wines, and their vineyard sharing fascinating details, and pairing suggestions.

I highly recommend their virtual wine tasting—it’s a fantastic way to enjoy their exquisite wines from the comfort of your home while still feeling connected to their vineyard. The care and attention they put into every detail truly makes it an outstanding experience!“

“It was raining when we visited so they set us up on the porch of the main building, which I LOVED. They had the heaters going and offered a cozy blanket. We were allowed to walk literally anywhere we wanted which was such a cool experience to see the bottling process and the cellar. All wines were delish and the staff was so friendly and attentive, especially Angela and Jeff(?). Would recommend!“

“I had the most delightful experience at **Honig Vineyard & Winery**! 🍇✨ From the breathtaking views of the vineyard 🍃🌞 to the impeccable service, this place truly stands out. The wine tasting was an absolute joy 🍷—each sip was a harmonious blend of rich flavors and craftsmanship. The staff were incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, making the visit both educational and fun. 😊📚 Their passion for sustainability 🌍 and producing top-quality wines is truly inspiring. If you're a wine lover 🍷❤️ or just looking for a serene escape, Honig Vineyard & Winery is a must-visit! 🍇🌟“

“Every wine we tasted was wonderful! So happy that we got to experience it again, this time with our good friends. They were wonderful with putting a birthday message up for our friend. She definitely appreciated it. Miguel was the best host. He was genuine, thoughtful, and no high pressured sales used.“

“I've been to Staglin three times and it is truly one of the special properties and families in Napa Valley. Everything there is top notch, including of course the wines. They have a lot on their plate and a small team, so plan your visit there as far in advance as possible!“

“We thoroughly enjoyed our retrospective decade tasting with Ryan G. He shared his in-depth knowledge of the history of the winery and the wine, and their legacy. He made us feel welcomed and comfortable. Flowers were still blooming in the garden area, too, even though we visited in late October. This tasting was the highlight of our trip to the region (except the balloon ride was awesome, too!). We were happy to order selections we tasted and a few more. Thank you, Ryan!“

“During our visit, we had the pleasure of experiencing the beautiful surroundings of this Napa Valley winery. The outdoor area resembled a peaceful garden, featuring charming sculptures and a stylish building with an old charm. The entrance, adorned with a unique arch, led us to a souvenir shop offering a variety of items, including wines and scented candles, from which we purchased some delightful gifts.
We look forward to returning for a wine-tasting experience during our next visit.“

“Our first stop during our trip to Napa and we were starstruck!! The building and grounds are absolutely gorgeous. Two people who work there took time to stop and chat with us and tell us about the history of Inglenook and their wine options. We made a bistro reservation and had fun walking around the 2nd floor museum with a glass of wine in hand. Highly recommend working in a stop at Inglenook!“

“Absolutely incredible wine and an A++ Vineyard Tasting visit. Connor and Brian treated my Wife & I like we were family. Down to earth, hospitable, and super down to earth. I cannot say enough good things about Fleury Estate Vineyard. Thank you again for everything!“

“The place looks very classy and the whole design really makes it look professional and luxurious.

Our waiter explained in detail about each wine we were tasting, and he was able to answer our questions.

There were 3 of us, and we each liked different wines. It really depends on personal taste preference.“

“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!“
