A fun winery to visit during Hopland's Passport event (once in spring and once in fall each year) when it opens up and gives space to local craftspeople. They also make olive oil and process it for others. Fourth generation Mendocino wine family - these people know what they are doing.
Hanna Winery was founded in 1985 by Dr. Elias Hanna, a world-renowned cardiac surgeon, who was eager to find a place in the country to continue the farming heritage of his upbringing in Syria. In the 1970s he realized his dream with the purchase of 12 acres in the Russian River Valley. Dr. Hanna's oldest daughter Christine now runs the winery. Great location, excellent views and a really nice and modern tasting room. Hanna makes a wide variety of wines and I was taken by their Elias Pinot Noir.

Wine is a magnificent creation formed by the union of natue with cultue. To sybolize this idea Mark McCoy and Bobby Moy include a stylized key, the symbol for Chiron to represent the "I" in Chiron. In January of 2020 Chieron wines became a winery partner with The Studio at Feast It Forward. 1031 McKinstry Street in downtown Napa. You can do a walk-in or call ahead for a private tasting.
The Snowden family have been growing premium wine grapes since the 1950s, deciding to begin producing wine under our own name in 1993. The family vineyards are located between Rutherford and St. Helena, overlooking the valley floor from the ridge line on the eastern side of the valley.
In the cool climate of Bennett Valley, at an elevation of 1200′, Eric Flanagan hand-tend the beautiful vineyards. By creating a healthy, balanced vineyard the vines are allowed our to express themselves.
Dominus is also a private label, not commercialized as others in Napa Valley. Christian Moueix owns Dominus Estate from Libourne, France. The Estate tucks in the Yountville, a short drive from the Villagio Inn and the busy street of Washington. Some of the finest Cabernet-based wines made in Napa. There is no disagreement. There are rumors that Pere Christian brings oak from Petrus or elsewhere back to Yountville for increased subtleties. One will never know. In any event, this is an extremely important site, with extremely impressive results.
The Napanook vineyard is nestled in a natural amphitheater at the Mayacamas Mountains' foothills on the Napa Valley's west side. Fed by winter rains, underground springs flow through ancient riverbeds, supplying the grapevines with a natural source of water, allowing them to develop deep roots.
This fertile benchland's microclimate has created ideal conditions for crops and grape growing for centuries.
In 1838, George Yount planted Napa Valley’s very first vines here.
The owner spent a lot of time on us explaining his wines and the winery's history. To be fair, there were not very many other customers. Still, he kept us entertained and conversed with us for well over an hour. We felt very welcome.Love how they work with their grapes. You know! if they promise me a bottle of the Sangiovese that I barrel-tasted today, I would probably give them another star. Image Aglianico Grape Clusters Courtesy of Randy Caparoso
The vineyard is quite incredible and impressive. We tasted 9 different wines in their cave which was filled with millions of dollars worth of marble statues. The cave was nice and cool and the aroma of the wines in the barrels hit you as soon as you entered. There was Italian music being pumped into the cave which helped set the mood for the tasting. Afterwards we wandered around their property and enjoyed quite the view from their patio area.
