About V. Sattui Winery
V. Sattui Winery, founded in 1885 by Vittorio Sattui and re-established in 1976 by his great-grandson Dario, embodies the spirit of the American Dream with its rich history and commitment to quality. Nestled in Napa Valley, the winery features stunning rustic Italianate architecture, lush gardens, and a focus on sustainable winemaking practices, offering a unique experience where guests can enjoy hand-crafted wines and gourmet food in a welcoming atmosphere. Known for its hospitality, V. Sattui was one of the first wineries to create picnic areas for visitors, fostering a sense of community and connection over shared experiences.
Why Visit V. Sattui Winery
The Reserve Tower Tasting pairs five ultra-premium wines with a circular marble bar inside the stone winery tower, limited to 12 guests at a time. V. Sattui sells only through its own doors, so bottles poured here aren't available anywhere else in Napa Valley or beyond.
