Wines are delicious, and the staff is incredible. I really enjoyed this tasting and employee, Jim. So personable, and he made the tasting better. Would definitely go back, especially for the Rosé and oddly the Merlot(don't let sideways sway you on this particular one?)

Was an alright tasting experience, nice wine room. Recommend having a glass of wine instead as it is a better value.

We walked in & were greeted right away! Our favorite experience in yountville and favorite "wine"tender we had. I believe his name was Eric! I'm miserable with names so don't quote me. The vibe is very mellow and you feel like you're in someone's home. Cozy. Comfortable. Friendly. There were only 2 wines I didn't care for much but that's the fault of my pallet not the winery....and i tried 6 so that's saying something. We came home with a bottle that surely didn't fit and put us over the 50lb limit but worth it! Definitely visit this gem on the corner of the street. Had a lovely French lunch following per their recommendation next door. We will be back eventually....one last thing...the candle in the bathroom is dreamy....we definitely couldn't also travel with that so in the event you have an overstock I would be ever so grateful for one to be sent my way ;-)

Really nice place. We were waking down the street in Yountville and the guy invited us in. Very good wine and great people

This place is great! I don't think there are many places that give you a different glass for each type of wine being served. We made a reservation for 8 and although we were quite a loud bunch, they didn't seem to mind. The wine was great but this was our second tasting of the day so we were having a great time. We didn't buy any bottles but the price point was very reasonable compared to the place we were at prior. Would definitely recommend!

Charlie was amazing! We had the best time he was so knowledgeable and answered every question we could think of. He was the best of our 4 wine tastings and by far Charlie blew the competition away. Highly recommend coming to Hill Family Estate!

This place is a gem!! We discovered it accidentally and it was the best accident ever. They gave us twice the pours your would receive at the price point, the staff welcomed us like their own family, the wine was some of the best I've ever had, and the staff was extremely knowledgeable. i highly recommend oh and it's family friendly, which is actually not that common in Napa. Get to the Hill estate if you want excellent wine and great people.

Some of the people in this area were pretty snobby to us. They all acted like they were so busy and "short staffed". That's fine. We can go elsewhere. That was not the case when we walked into Hill Family Estate. They were very welcoming and kind. We got a great people watching view by the window to enjoy our wine. It was so great we forgot to get a pic before it was gone. We will definitely be back next time we are in town. Thank you!!

We came here on a whim as we were walking around and are SOOO glad we did! The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating to our group. Sarah is amazing and fun, you’ll learn so much with her! The wine itself is definitely one of the best I’ve ever tried. You need to come here for a tasting!

Fantastic! If you do not want to have to choose between your mortgage and a tasting..come to Hill Family Estate! Get a glass...a flight...a tasting..sit inside or out..and be served and helped by lovely people! Thank you Heather..you are very welcoming and wanted us to enjoy!! We will be back!!and excellent wines and sparkling wines!
This quaint and cozy winery was a delightful pit stop sandwiched between many eateries before our dinner break. I loved everything about this and it was a more intimate experience. After exploring 2 wineries in Napa Valley, we wanted a speakeasy experience to talk and still enjoy an easygoing tasting. The white Cabernets were nice and crisp but our favorite hands down was the red Weathering The Storm. Came here with my friend and his family who are longtime supporters and wine efficienados. Our wine was served so well and efficiently. Very friendly staff. The next time we don't have to wait for our dinner reservations lingering in our hotel rooms as I loved how this place was within walking distance. A win and a best kept secret.

I've taken several trips to Napa and Sonoma since we moved here 3 years ago. This was by far our favorite!! We booked a tasting for three at the winery location and were so impressed by our host, Charlie. The tasting was private, relaxing, and the views were great! Charlie was so knowledgeable in the wine & the story behind each one. We have already booked a date that we plan to visit again!

Charlie is absolute fire. He made our experience so fun and he is extremely talented. Highly recommend!!!

We sat down and we were served the first flight of the flight. We never received our water and waited 20 minutes for the second tasting. After that we left.

Charlie is THE BEST! He’s made our experience amazing and went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of. Also, he plays the guitar and he should be on American Idol… and win!
