Description<\/strong>
\nThe Kuleto Winery is known\u2014rightfully so\u2014for its\u00a0spectacular\u00a0views. Perched atop one of Napa Valley’s\u00a0luscious\u00a0hills, Kuleto looks out across some of California’s most picturesque agriculture. Get there early in the morning on the right kind of day, and you can watch the fog slowly dissipate off the valley floor, raising the curtain on a clear and beautiful scene.<\/p>\n

The site itself was meticulously planned and planted by Pat Kuleto, the famous\u00a0restaurateur\u00a0and decorator known for San Francisco\u00a0restaurants like\u00a0Boulevard<\/a>, Farrallon<\/a>,\u00a0Fog City Diner<\/a>, and the namesake Kuleto’s<\/a>. Much of Kuleto’s 761 acres in the lush Hennessey Basin is untouched wilderness, and the grapes are planted so as to preserve the integrity of the hillside. And as any proper estate would, this one includes everything from orchards to gardens to a working ranch with sheep, cattle, and more.<\/p>\n

As would be expected of such a magical place, a tasting here is not just a tasting but an experience<\/em>, combining gorgeous scenery with\u00a0delectable food and, of course, great wine. Visits, by appointment only, start with a tour (wine in hand, naturally) of the grounds. Then it’s back to the tasting room to sample Kuleto’s\u00a0crisp, bright whites and dark, dangerous reds, paired with artisan cheeses. \u00a0The visit costs $40 per person.<\/p>\n

Specialty tastings are also available, including the “Winemaker’s Whim” ($85 per person), an evening with winemaker David Lattin\u2014and whatever wines he chooses to explore. These tastings are paired with a selection of delicious small bites, prepared with ingredients grown on site.<\/p>\n

Tours take place daily at 10:30 a.m., 11:45 a.m., 1 p.m., and 2:30 p.m. Appointments are required, so call ahead.<\/p>\n
