HALL Rutherford — Attraction in Napa Valley AVA

I am typically not one to write reviews, but I felt compelled after the lovely experience I had at Hall Rutherford on NYE 2023. I've been a member with Hall for several years now, have visited the St. Helena campus a dozen or more times and this was my first time visiting the Rutherford location. Hannah gave a phenomenal tour of the beautifully appointed private estate. Despite having heard 'the spiel' too many times to count, Hannah managed to provide new and interesting nuggets on how Hall churns out some of the best Cabernet Sauvignon that the Napa Valley has to offer. The Cave beneath the main residence is breathtaking and unlike any I've experienced in Napa! At the end of the Cave is a gorgeous library with a collection Hall wines throughout the years.

He and Team Hall chose beautiful wines for us from starting with a glass of Champagne, while we enjoyed the view from the picture window, followed by a Cabernet as we walked to the room with the wine tanks, and through the wine cave, followed by three single vintage wines in the Chandelier room. Every moment was picture perfect, and...

I have no idea why I actually visit other wineries in NAPA Valley...Hall is not only a spectacular winery, their wines are still my favorites from the Sav Blanc to Cabernets and the WALT Pinots are unparalleled. Couple that with their awesome hospitality and there's no reason to go elsewhere. A visit to the St. Helena vineyard is as pleasant and relaxing time as you'll find. Bring some snacks to accompany the wine and there is also an expansive lawn that's great for the kids. This is a must visit winery when...
