Hess Persson Estates

Hands down, phenomenal. Took the ATV ride, perfect for mom is ADA. Beautiful countryside. Our tour guide, Steve, was the BEST. Intimate experience for wine and cheese tasting. Bonus art gallery. Ever employee was great at accommodating our needs. Incredible, highly recommend when visiting Napa

My experience at Hess Persson Winery was nothing short of exceptional. Our tour guide, Michael, was an absolute gem. His passion for his job was palpable, and his explanations of the winemaking process and the identification of the various trees on the vineyard were enlightening. The wine itself was the highlight of our Napa weekend; in fact, it was the best we tasted throughout our numerous winery visits. The Hess experience truly stands out from the rest. The food pairings were thoughtfully curated and absolutely delicious, enhancing the tasting experience even further. I was so impressed that I immediately ordered wine to be shipped home, and I can't wait to join their wine club soon. Hess Persson Winery has set the bar high for wine tasting experiences in Napa Valley.

Visited in January for my birthday and they went above and beyond to make me feel extra special. Currently their tours are all private experiences for just your group. We were greeted with a Pinot Noir Rose before taking a tour of the cellar and barrel room where we got several pours of the Lion Tamer Cabernet Sauvignon. For the rest of our tasting, we were led upstairs to their art gallery. Unfortunately we ran out of time to look through most of the art but a more robust collection than what I was expecting. Our tasting consisted of the Lioness Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Malbec, and Celebration Cuvee. We also got to try their Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon at the end. Our favorites were actually the Pinot rose and lion tamer cab at the beginning of the tour as well as the Malbec. Highly recommend a visit!

Hess was by far one of our favorite experiences on our trip to Napa! Absolutely beautiful! Unfortunately, the weather was too rainy for us to do the ATV tour, however, the tour and tasting was still amazing!
We had Cindy as our guide and she was the best- so kind, knowledgeable and fun!
I highly recommend Hess if you’re looking for the perfect combination of an experience (and beautiful art) in addition to delicious wine! The tasting is held inside of the art museum & is such a cool touch! We will definitely be returning next time we’re in Napa!

Hands down the most beautiful winery we visited. From the personalized wine and cheese experience, to the eclectic art, to the fantastic scenery, it surpassed a five star rating. Our host Cindy was knowledgeable, personable, and a joy to spend time with. There is no doubt we will visit here again next time we are in the area.

Hess was by far one of my favorites during our week in Napa. Great grounds, great staff, clean crisp wines. The wines were just great. Our guide Michael led us through the tasting and the tour of the grounds. The art is phenomenal and showcases the Hess Persson name and estate. The long family history and traditions are still carried forward into their wine making today. Well worth a visit.

We opted for the ATV experience with Steve and were lucky to have a perfect day of weather. Steve showed us the property and had so much knowledge of the business and culture surrounding wine. Our tasting afterwards in the gallery was perfect and Steve made for great company. 10/10 would recommend for the views, art, wine, and Steve!

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.

Steve was our tour guide. He was great! Very informative and made us feel comfortable asking questions. Beautiful tour and delicious wines!

We did the ATV Vineyard Tour + Wine & Food Pairing. A bit pricey but we had a really good experience! Steve was a great tour guide. He drove us around and educated us on the grapes and the growing process. He answered a lot of our questions and then took us inside where we had some incredible food that was pair with some equally incredible wines.

We did four wineries during our stay in Napa and this one was our favorite!

We ended our long weekend in Napa with a ATV tour of the estate, exquisite wine + food pairing, and visiting the art collection. Stunning location. Our guide Alex was knowledgeable and attentive. This is a don’t miss visit!

Edgar is the man. This was the best tour of any kind we have experienced. We did the atv tour with wine tasting/cheese. Amazing peacefull location up in the hills. Highly recommend. To top it off the wine was great!!

Our time at Hess Persson Winery was a perfect blend of excitement and refinement. The staff especially our tour guide Edgar was so welcoming, kind, and accommodating especially when I learned I booked the tour for the wrong date. The ATV tour offered breathtaking vineyard views, setting the stage for a delightful grape tasting. The winery's charming setting added an extra layer of enjoyment. A sophisticated touch awaited us at the end—a cheese tasting in an art gallery. The flavors paired seamlessly with the wines, creating a memorable finale.

Wonderful experience! Steven was the perfect host, art guide, and wine expert for our group! We plan to return! Thank you!

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit today, hosted by Michael. The private tour format was generous and we really enjoyed spending time looking at the extensive art collection followed by a tasting. Sitting amongst the impressive art while sampling wine has been a highlight of our trip to Napa. Beautiful setting and great hospitality.

Eileen our server / wine expert was amazing. She is absolutely knowledgeable. Great experience and great wine tasting.

Our #1 favorite tasting experience we’ve been to. Tucked away on Mount Veeder, you take a serene drive up to the estate. The grounds were gorgeous, the wine remarkable, and the gallery tasteful. Highly recommend.

This is by far my favorite winery tucked away from the main drag of Napa. It’s a bit of drive to locate this winery but it’s WORTH your time. Not only that, they do have great art museum as well with modern art collections. I’ve been to many wineries and tasting room. The wine collections here and the customer service is well deserved 5stars. Ask for wine block selection, it’s their limited selection. It’s well crafted, full of aroma and taste exquisites.

A very cool winery. Went here a few years ago. Huge selection of wines. Some great food and scenic setup!

Great winery with a unique atmosphere.

I was here for the final stop of a Place tour and had a lot of fun. The wine tasting took place both outside and in the cellar. We started outside, walked part of the grounds and learned some of the history of the winery. From there we headed to the cellar to finish the tasting.

In addition to the great wines, the main building and grounds are both home to a fairly large art collection which you can view.
