Our 2nd time at Paloma. Sheldon is extremely passionate about carrying on his parents legacy. He's a wealth of knowledge not only about the wines he makes, but he has great perspective on the wine industry in general from the past, present and future. This is a very intimate tasting either in his dining room or deck that overlooks the valley. Highly recommend a visit.

Beautiful views!! Sheldon and Laura were extremely kind and knowledgeable. We love hearing about the history of the vineyard. We joined the club and will definitely be revisiting.

The view is only second to the hospitality shown by the staff and owner. And the view is pretty dang awesome.
Mary Frederick
Well worth it. Sheldon is one of the last old Dogs left. He does everything…farm, winemaker, tasting!! The view is also spectacular and the Merlot is just beautiful and smooth.
Brendon De Boer
Paloma is beautiful and our tasting guide was a great guy with many stories about the land and the product. We had a great view of the valley and an enjoyable time watching the hummingbirds. Great touches to a custom experience!

Really lovely merlots and cab savs and an unusually intimate experience with a stunning backdrop. We so enjoyed our tasting and tour (which exposed us to the different stages of the aging process in a unique and fun way unseen elsewhere)! Paloma is an undiscovered gem and the ability to meet the owner, Sheldon, was both rare and enlightening. We look forward to visiting again on future trips and will enjoy sharing their wines with friends in the meantime!

Great tasting. Wines are wonderful. Views are spectacular as well.

This is my favorite stop when I visit Napa. Spring Hill offers a completely different experience than the valley floor. The grapes take on a more textured flavor that Shel does a fabulous job of turning into beautiful wines that drink great and age extremely well. The Merlot is my favorite. Excited and looking forward to the first Cabernet Franc due to be released in Aug 2024. A Non vintage blend that I expect will wow just as the Merlot does. Tell Shel that you saw the review from Dylan. Because Paloma is not just a winery, it's a family tradition. Join the family. Come for the wines, stay for engaging discussions about the valley and wine history.

I had the pleasure of visiting Paloma this past Saturday, and it was an unforgettable experience. Nestled at the peak of Spring Mountain, Paloma is renowned for crafting some of the finest Merlot in the state, sourced from their exceptional mountain vineyards.
From the moment we arrived, the scenery was breathtaking—a picturesque backdrop that promises a serene wine tasting experience. The real charm of Paloma, however, lies in its warm hospitality, led by the ever-gracious Sheldon. His extensive knowledge and passion for winemaking were evident as he took the time to engage with us, making our visit not just educational but incredibly personal.
The wines, especially the Merlot, were a highlight. They exhibited a complexity and depth that could only come from the high-quality mountain fruit Paloma prides itself on. Each sip was a testament to the meticulous care and expertise that go into their winemaking process.
Our visit to Paloma was nothing short of a pleasure. It's a must-visit for anyone who appreciates fine wine and welcoming hosts. A big thank you to Sheldon and the Paloma team for such a memorable day!

Had an amazing experience at Paloma! I proposed to my girlfriend here and they made the experience perfect. They helped me plan it exactly how I wanted to and helped me make it a surprise. The views are unmatched on the top of Spring Mountain. Their wine is also super good. I will be back every time I’m in the area!! So nice to have an experience that is more private and unique instead of a commercialized one at the bigger wineries.
Thank you Sheldon for your hospitality. Had a great time on the property with the a vertical tasting of the Merlot. By far the best tasting experience we've had, and was such a treat to hear and learn directly from the winemaker.

Amber Frisbey
Always a great experience. Sheldon’s passion for doing the right thing for people, the wine, and his staff is truly impressive. Definitely worth the trek up the hill! We will always stop when in the area and be customers when we’re not!

Recently visited Paloma vineyard, was graciously greeted by 2 beautiful goldens as the welcoming committee. Astonished by the views, we tasted the delicious merlot. This is definitely a place to stop and enjoy some wine from a family owned vineyard.
