Cam made our wine tasting experience the best out of our entire trip! His customer service was top-tier! We were so taken back even by him, offering to bring us a blanket as it had a slight chill outside! He was so knowledgeable and truthfully did such a great job during our wine tasting!!!

We had the most amazing tasting experience with Karen. We started out on the ATV where she gave us a really intimate look at the vines and hilltop views. Each stop she’d pour us some wine, snap photos, and share her knowledge about the winery. After seeing the vines we were taken on a tour of the caves and ended with a private tasting in the caves themselves. I couldn’t recommend this tour enough. It was so amazing that we even decided to be come wine club members.

I came here to celebrate my Birthday and the ATV cave tour was beautiful and informative. The only thing that was a bit off putting was our tour guide. The way she asked for ID was a bit unprofessional. I have had the pleasure to tour various vineyards in Napa and happily handed over ID whenever they kindly asked me to. Our tour guide started her sentence with “Is your age ending with a “0” or a “1”? She kept pushing that same line multiple times until I had to tell her my age. It might behoove you to please be kinder and more professional when asking for identification and not ruin someone’s mood with your demeanor.

We called in advance about running late to our tasting, and the woman that answered was rude and passive aggressive. Don't go here. When we arrive, we heard her speak about us to other customers which was pretty shocking. Ironically, the place was pretty empty, so we were confused why she was so upset by our late arrival. Our server was so nice but overall the experience was severely dampened by her behavior. Do not recommend.

Beautiful place to go and relax with friends and family, I love the tour! You can also bring snacks of your own. Napa California is so beautiful and close to where I live.

My partner and I did the "ATV" tour and tasting at Rutherford Hill Winery and bought two bottles of wine. It was a first time to this winery and we booked online via Tock. While the description centered the "ATV" (a literal four person vehicle that acts as a shuttle to the hillside grow) I'd say it didn't add much to the experience other than the view. While we didn't expect to drive the ATVs ourselves we didn't know much what to expect given the very brief description online. I wouldn't say it was a "bonus" I'd go back for. Overall, we were a bit underwhelmed. Lori (our guide) was knowledgeable and friendly. She was kind and navigated unexpected obstacles (such as a broken cork while tasting out in the field- she was able to save it) very well. However, as an end to end experience there were opportunities for improvement. It was a bit off from the beginning, we booked a tour at 11am in advance (our preferred time). My partner was actually contacted in advance and asked if we'd switch to the 2pm tour to join another couple. We are very flexible (having come from fine dining myself, I understand how this might be easier for the establishment and the staff). However, I don't think they reached out to the other guests to confirm their tasting. When we arrived, we were impacted by late guests and cut short by their schedule since they voiced they had scheduled their flight immediately after their tasting. While the winery did give us a little extra taste of a port at the end (upon our request) we felt they could have been a bit more accommodating at the end to compensate for the time we lost out in the vineyard m. It was a bit of a disappointment since we were looking to take our time, planned our time in advance, and we're convinced to adjust to their schedules. Having switched to a time later in the day it was very hot on the hillside, and we were not offered water while in the vineyard. If you have the opportunity to maintain the 11am, I'd recommend you take advantage. Their winery is know more for production of the typical style of the region, Boudreaux blends and varietals. While the wine was full bodied, there weren't any distinctive characteristics or narratives behind any of the bottle that captured our attention for membership.

This winery is absolutely stunning. It's located on a hill so you have wonderful views across and below. They have great seating areas under gazebos or umbrellas. It's just a pretty winery. I highly recommend!

The wine is ok, but the service is terrible. We roasted outside in 90*+ weather with empty wine and water glasses. No one came out to serve us after 45 minutes of waiting.

We booked a private reception style tasting for our corporate event. Debbie was incredibly helpful during the booking process, ensuring that they crafted an experience that everyone in our team would enjoy – they even had non-alcoholic options for the non-wine drinkers. Upon arrival, we were greeted by Logan, their Hospitality Manager, and then escorted to two private cabanas where our wine glass and tasting menu were there to greet us. Logan walked us through five wines which were wonderful. He provided such great information behind each variety, the region it was from, and the profile of the wine. Given how beautiful Rutherford Hill Winery is – sitting atop a hill where you can look down and see the Rutherford region – we wanted to explore the grounds a bit. Logan was kind enough to move our tasting to various parts of the property so we could see the beautiful venue, look out at the valley below, and enjoy their wonderful wine! I highly recommend Rutherford Hill Winery for either a group or personal event. The view and wine are worth it!

An absolutely beautiful experience with our tour guide Karen. We tried some delicious wine and snacks and toured the vineyard and caves.
