RigArt Garage Winery is not open to the public and yes, as the name implies this winery is run directly out of a garage. As a result, this was one of the oddest Napa tastings we have done...sitting in the garage in the dark watching residential traffic cruise by the neighborhood streets! We have since visited a number of "garagist" wineries in Napa, but in … [Read more...]
Ritchie Creek Vineyard
Ritchie Creek Vineyard is one of the oldest and seemingly most isolated wineries in the Spring Mountain District. There are in fact a number of wineries in the immediate vicinity - but much of their property is heavily wooded and you don't sense there are any winery neighbors during a visit here. Their approximately 8 acres of vineyards are located at about … [Read more...]

Robinson Family Vineyards
Robinson Family Vineyards. The roots of this small family-owned winery date back to 1967 when Norman 'Bud' & Helen Robinson purchased 78 acres of land (below the prominent rock outcroppings in this part of the Vaca mountain range known as the Stags Leap cliffs) and at that time ran cattle and horses. Bud was a Lieutenant Colonel in the US Army; prior to … [Read more...]
Rocca Family Vineyards
Rocca Family Vineyards owns two vineyards, one in Yountville and one in Coombsville slightly north east of the town of Napa. No winery production exists on either property; their wines are produced at a custom-crush winery near the city of Napa. For about four years, Rocca maintained an open-to-the-public tasting room on Main Street in Napa until they closed … [Read more...]
Romeo Vineyards & Cellars
Romeo Vineyards & Cellars is owned and operated by Frank Romeo - his wife, Eugenia tragically passed away from brain cancer in 2017.

Their inaugural vintage was from 1997 - a Cabernet … [Read more...]
Rombauer Vineyards
Rombauer Winery is a real nice find; the winery is located about 1/4 mile off Silverado Trail on the east side of Napa Valley in the small pine covered hills that are found in this area. Look for the large American flag flying along the Silverado Trail which marks the entrance. An expansive view of Napa Valley can be seen from the deck of the tasting room … [Read more...]
