50 Best Wineries in Saint Helena

“The experience is absolutely unforgettable! We have completed extensive traveling including, but not limited to Italy and Paris and this is far the best wine tasting to date. The experience was intimate, personable. From the champagne on arrival, to the photo opportunity located at the best view of the vineyard on the property, to food and wine pairing where the the tartlet was indescribable. Listening to Tyler, a native Al, provide the history of the vineyard and background of labeling. Just an awesome experience, Visit, you will not regret it!!!“

“Of all the vineyards we visited in Napa Valley, Rombauer was our favorite! The hospitality shown by the staff from the minute we walked in was suburb. Deniro was an engaging and enthusiastic educator in promoting the Rombauer experience. We highly recommend!“

“Really enjoy our experience today. Dana was absolutely lovely 😊“

“We are on a road trip through CA and of course wanted to make a stop in Napa Valley and check out a vineyard. Though we stopped by the Napa Valley Welcome Center for recommendations they weren’t super helpful. I did use their QR code to find “kid friendly” vineyards. Some of these vineyards were not that kid friendly once we started looking into them and calling around. Tres Sabores however was VERY welcoming to us and our 9 year old. The vineyard was beautiful and so peaceful!! My husband and I enjoyed the tour with Dave and learned so much!! Julie the owner also came over and spoke with us for a bit! We tried 5 different wines and our daughter was provided organic juice boxes, bubbles and coloring supplies. We had snacks for the table that all of us enjoyed! After our tour and tastings we walked over to the barn area and played with the animals. Highly recommend Tres Sabores not only for families, but adults on their own too!! What a wonderful vineyard and great experience!!“

“Rosa was A-mazing! She made me feel at home. I’ve been to several wine tastings, but I had never felt at home until now. Rosa took me back to the magical realism era, where mole and wine meet to give you the most exquisite experience. If you’re a fan of the novel/movie/series of Like Water of Chocolate, then this is the place for you.“

“What a unique experience! Our private tour and tasting in the pool house with Pamela, set up by Maria D'Ambrosio at The Harvest Inn, was special and the perfect way to start a couple of days in the Napa Valley.

From the unique story to the incredible wines, Pamela walked us through the JCB experience, how they make their wines, and the history of their family and their sustainable, all-natural winemaking without pesticides or chemicals.

One of the most eclectic and interesting properties we experienced. The sensory wall, including touch and smell, was an interesting way to talk about how people experience wine, and a walk through the red room and the winemaking area was extraordinary.

While it was a larger and more commercial operation, the experience was personal, and the wines we tasted were brilliant.“

“🍷 Napa Favorites Series — #1st Place Winner! 🏆 Chappellet
The energy here was just incredible.
Our wine expert’s passion matched the wine itself—genuine, unforced enthusiasm that made every pour feel like a “wow” moment. We truly loved everything we tasted.
The tasting room itself is nothing flashy—no frills, no show. Just down-to-earth confidence: this is how we do it.
There’s even a story that stuck with me… the owner once gave away his ticket to the Judgment of Paris, because they didn’t feel the need to prove anything. That says a lot about the place.
It honestly reminded me a bit of Drops of God—not in a theatrical way, but in how the wine speaks for itself without needing to brag.
That’s why this made this my #1.
Not hype. Not marketing. Just exceptional wine and people who are confident enough to let it stand on its own.
We genuinely enjoyed all of them—but this one felt like a pleasant surprise I want to share my great experience with the world.

“Such an amazing place! Beer, wine AND ice cream! Perfection!“

“Our best visit during our trip to Napa! We visited Domaine Carneros, B.Cellars, Davis Estates, Grgich, and Prager Port. We had a nice visit at all of those vineyards, but none of them came close to the hospitality, friendliness and generosity that Ryan Morales showed us during our tasting at Maxville. The wines were fantastic, as was meeting Cullen...a member of the wine making team. The entire visit was spot on from the minute we arrived, to the tour of the grounds, to the tasting. Exceptional, proud to be a club member at Maxville...can't wait until our next visit.“

“Moim zdaniem najlepsze wina w Napa. Bardzo miła i pomocna obsługa, która z uwaga wsłuchuje się w oczekiwania gości!“

“Such a fun and beautiful tasting. The wines are amazing, too-most importantly!“

“My husband and I had a wonderful experience visiting Louis M Martini. The Crown collection tasting was amazing. James was very knowledgeable about the wines and history of Louis M Martini. Spent the time answering our questions and made us feel welcome. Would highly recommend a tasting at Louis M Martini. Hope to be back in the near future. Thank you again James!“

“Hall Wines was an experience beyond anything that I could have imagined. When we came to wine taste at Hall, our expectations were not set. I've been too many wineries in St Helena, but I've never been to Hall. The grounds were absolutely immaculate. The winery was stunningly, beautiful. Our server Alfredo Hernandez was knowledgeable, warm, friendly, inviting, and a superb host. I love talking about wanting and asking questions as I taste and both Alfredo and Tom were both a pleasure to engage with. We enjoyed absolutely everything in our experience. We enjoyed everything so much that I decided that after July of this year, I would like to switch my wine club over to Hall from another wine club that I have in Napa. Very much looking forward to our next visit!“

“This was our last stop in Napa. Luke was exceptional. We learned more from him in the 90 minutes we spent at Heitz than in our entire two days in Napa. Would absolutely come back and request him as our host. Great wine. Was accommodating to our taste palette. This is a great stop to add to your itinerary.“

“These wines are incredible and it was a gorgeous setting! Zoey was very knowledgeable and navigated us through tasting some of the best wines we’ve ever had. She also gave us some great recommendations for dining and tastings in the area!“

“Omg! Thank you Clif Winery! I had ordered wine back in February and was going to pick it up in May during my mom’s b-day celebration. Because that had to be cancelled, they delivered the wine to me today, along with a few bonus bottles! Love these guys! Thank you Ashley Cox, John Sundin and the whole Clif Winery Family! :)“

“Large tasting samples so he ready and eat something before you go 😊“

“Love Amizetta! 8 of us were just there yesterday. Great wine, great views, and Frankie was a great host! We had a lot of fun. I look forward to going again in the future to see the finished renovations!“

“Our visit to Crocker & Starr was outstanding!! Juan was an absolutely lovely host, and my husband, friends and I had such a nice experience. I couldn’t believe how much attention and care we received to make it the best tasting possible. This had to be my favorite experience I’ve ever had in Napa! The wine was absolutely exquisite and the setting is beautiful. 10/10 would recommend!!“

“Great wines. Great people. Great views.“

“What fun! A very pleasant afternoon drinking and learning about ports. The vibe is super friendly and welcoming, and the wines are the same. If you enjoy ports or are looking for a little different taste, don’t miss this place, it’s great.“

“Had the Signature Selection tasting and thoroughly enjoyed it. Beautiful winery, excellent service, and fantastic wines. The Cabernet Sauvignons were particularly impressive. Our host was friendly and knowledgeable, making the experience both enjoyable and informative. A must-visit winery in Napa Valley.“

“We came here on a sunny Saturday and honestly didn't know what to expect, but it ended up being the best afternoon weve had in months. The woman pouring our wine was super chill and let us sample a few extra ones just because we couldn't decide between two reds. I ended up loving the zinfandel, it was so smooth and rich, and my friend bought a bottle to take home right then. The view from the terrace is just ridiculous, you can see for miles over the valley and the whole place felt so quiet and peaceful. We sat outside for almost two hours just chatting and sipping, no one rushed us at all. Already talking about coming back for a picnic next time, I cant stop thinking about that wine“

“I recently had the pleasure of visiting Dakota Shy, and I can't say enough good things about Michael. He couldn’t have been more helpful with the offering, ensuring our group had an exceptional experience. Michael shared the incredible Detert collection, which was delightful! And, of course, don’t forget to say hi to Leon the cat when you’re there—he’s an absolute hoot and adds a fun touch to the visit!“

“Beautiful people and wine!“

“Ben was an excellent host. Friendly, knowledgeable, and welcoming. He was attentive our dogs and adaptable to the range of tastes of the people in our group. It's great to get a local perspective of Spring Mountain's historical and current place in the Napa Valley wine industry. The setting was lovely and the wine was nice. Overall, a great experience, which I would recommend to others.“

“Lovely day with fantastic wine 🍷“

“Great wine tasting experience. Ordered a meat and cheese tray that was delicious. It paired well with the wine. Chardonnay was surprisingly delicious even though I usually don’t like it. Diana was awesome she explained all the wine options perfectly and very attentive to our needs. Great opportunity for nice pictures.“

“My visit to the Sinegal Winery delivered an excellent experience. The experience was relaxing and elevated, focusing on the history of the estate, the founders and most importantly the wine. Krystina was a great host and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the experience. Thank You Krystina !!“

“My wife and I were driving through and decided to try a tasting here. It’s very unassuming from the road however, once you are inside, the property is absolutely beautiful. They had a large group that day and were unable to give us a formal tasting, but we purchased a glass of wine and enjoyed the property. Look forward to returning and scheduling a tasting.“

“We had a lovely time visiting the Schweiger winery! We had a great tasting outside on the terrace with a beautiful view over the estate. Wendy was a great host, answering all our (many) questions and told us all about the history of the winery and the vines as well as Napa Valley (as it was our first time). We love Andy Schweigers style - especially for his Cabernet Sauvignon and „Dedication“ edition - he’s putting his own spin on the wines!
We’re definitely coming back!“

“This is my first ever review.. I was ant David Arthur Winery exactly 4 weeks ago with my dear friend/ and adventure buddy. We got a tour of the winery and did a very personal wine tasting with the most gorgeous view of Napa valley with Jeffrey (hope I got the name right) You would have thought we had known Jeffrey for years, he gave us a tasting of the most amazing wine, while teaching us all about David Arthur and the most beautiful story of how this vineyard and winery became David Arthur winery. He even unintentionally went over the time limit of our visit because of how natural and great this moment was. This was the most beautiful and special day Michael and I have ever had together. Unfortunately, Michael passed away of a heart attack last weekend and that’s why I wanted to go on here and personally thank Jeffrey and David Arthur winery for giving Michael and I the best last weekend we have ever had together. I will Cherish that moment on that gorgeous hillside on the most perfect (last weekend of summer) day together. Between the wine, the conversation and the view I will never forget this moment. Thank you so much for this incredible experience. If I could give more than a 5 star I would.“

“We had an excellent tasting hosted by Kathy. The wines are great quality in and of themselves but it was fun to take it the extra step and try the varieties in different styles of glasses. The food pairings from La Toque were fantastic. Would recommend!“

“Such a hidden gem! We’ve only been to Napa twice, but my boyfriend and I agree—this is our favorite winery by far. John was an amazing tour guide: knowledgeable, fun, and easygoing. The grounds were absolutely beautiful, and the wine was exceptional. We became members on the spot! Highly recommend!“

“If you want to learn about wines, it’s the place to visit“

“A magical space tucked in the hills kept moving by the wind, and diversity of soils that are showcased in the wines. Ruby lead me through the history, and the legacy of humble greatness.
If you're a collector, or this is your first artisan wine introduction I know the authentic passion Ruby has for the entire process will be what you've been missing in a fine wine experience.“

“Fantastic wine and very welcoming! I'm not a big Chardonnay, but they had the best I've ever had!“

“Always have a great experience at this amazing winery!“

“We had the pleasure of having Ian walk us through their beautiful wine selection, couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Ian was so knowledgeable about the history and flavor of the wine, absolutely delicious. Would 10/10 times come back.“

“I've visited Titus Vineyards several times, and every visit has been exceptional. The setting is absolutely beautiful, and the wine tasting experience is always top-notch. Their Reserve Cabernet is truly outstanding—one of the best I've ever tasted!“

“My wife, infant, and I visited Sullivan Rutherford Estate to celebrate Mother's Day, and the hospitality and thoughtfulness we experienced were unmatched in Napa Valley. Cuquita and her team ensured everything was absolutely perfect and made the day feel special. The estate feels like walking into a secret garden, complete with a rope swing and a peaceful pond. While the wines are, of course, fantastic, what really sets Sullivan apart in a valley of 500 tasting options is the benchmark they set for truly intimate, memorable experiences.“

“My wife, Sue, and I had a wonderful experience at Chase Cellars yesterday afternoon. We enjoyed the beautiful outdoor tasting area overlooking the vineyard. Tasted some terrific wines. But the best part of the experience was our tasting guide, Evan. He was a fun, knowledgeable highly personable guide, who took us through the history of the property as well as each of the delicious wines. Best tasting in the entire area. Definitely seek this one out.“

“Friendly service and food was amazing.“

“Beautiful intimate setting with the most knowledgeable wine experts!“

“It’s delicious and it serves food for our soul…“

“how nice it looks wine was great my guest was happy from the wine trolley“

“Our first stop arriving in Napa and what a wonderful time at this vineyard. We were greeted by a man named Francois with an enchanting accent who is another winemaker there. He was funny but also so knowledgeable. Stu and Charles were not there but he gave us a great tour and tasting.
The place is not huge, but I love that we simply just tasted these beautiful wines right in the barrel room/ office. It was low key, non pretentious and he told us wonderful stories about the history of the land, the wine and family. We went during off season so there wasn't much to see on the vines per se, but getting to walk around and seeing all of it from a high vantage point was pretty stellar. Of course we all took a couple bottles with us and look forward to having it soon!
We got to go down to the cellar and see some super old wines stored. What a cool experience!“

“My wife and I came here on a whim one rainy Saturday morning and Tanya was kind enough to host us. She was extremely knowledgable and so down to earth, we really enjoyed the wines, conversation and setting. I can't recommend this winery enough!“

“Our party of 4 enjoyed a wonderful tasting with Donna on Friday, October 18, 2024, a breezy but gorgeous morning! We were treated to the Sherwin Family story of renaissance from destruction in 2020 to a complete rebuild in 2023. As a Veteran, the patriotic flair of the vineyard was particularly attractive and the bottle itself is spectacular! Highly recommend this Vineyard!“
