Perched on legendary Pritchard Hill—what Wine Spectator dubbed “the Rodeo Drive of Napa Valley”—Brand crafts powerful, age-worthy Cabernet Sauvignons from 12 estate acres. Brand produces three exceptional red wines: the flagship 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the Proprietary Red Blend, and the Vineyard N°95 Cabernet Sauvignon blend. Each reservation-only tasting includes a comprehensive winery and cave tour, a flight of their trio of red wines, and carefully curated charcuterie—all hosted in their beautiful hillside facility, designed to evoke the classic architecture of a Western mining town.

Why we like it:

Brand’s Winery Estate’s location puts you among Napa’s most elite wineries. The intimate, unscripted seated tastings take place in a cozy hospitality space featuring Asian-inspired landscaping and stunning mountain views overlooking Lake Hennessey. It’s perfect for serious wine enthusiasts and collectors seeking an exclusive mountain winery experience. We strongly recommend joining their mailing list in advance to secure priority booking—this is one of Pritchard Hill’s most sought-after appointments.
