A stone winery restored in a fusion of traditional and modern styles is home to Hess Persson Estates, featuring mostly large installations along with several paintings, sculptures, and mixed media pieces. Swiss entrepreneur Donald Hess bought these vineyards in Napa Valley in 1978. Walk through the landscaped gardens, underneath wisteria vines, and among contemporary sculptures. While admiring the art, take the opportunity to sip a glass of fine cabernet sauvignon or chardonnay, and nibble on cheeses and truffles served with specialty nuts and seasonal fruit.

Well as most people would come here for their awesome wine, we came for their great art! The concept of combining wine tasting and art galleries is just brilliant. They have so many important art pieces and the space itself it’s breathtaking. It’s better to have reservations.

If you’re looking for a Grade A wine tasting experience plus an excellent tour, you’re at the right place. Steve is the quintessential host. Look from North Calistoga all the way to the Bay Bridge and you will find no better than Steve. Hess Estates was a glorious experience. I bought a case today and I may buy more tomorrow. Cheers wine drinkers!
