Produces more than 30 award-winning wines, hand-crafted from small lots of high quality fruit. Inspired by the artistic approach to winemaking and the natural characteristics of the grapes, Mitch Cosentino lets his palate guide him. The production of each wine varies from year to year, based on the quality and yield of the vintage. "I want the art developing the business," explains Mitch Cosentino, "not the business creating the art."

This family owned and operated winery located in Oakville, in the heart of the Napa valley, combines Old World winemaking techniques and modern technology to produce small lot, hand crafted, high end reserve wines by using fruit from carefully selected California vineyards. Wines produced here include limited quantities of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Zinfandel, Sangiovese, Pinot Noir and other premium varietals.

V Sattui's wine making history dates back to 1885, when Vittorio Sattui founded the winery in San Francisco. His great grandson Daryl Sattui revived the family tradition in the 1970's by establishing the winery in Napa Valley, just south of St. Helena. Currently, 13 vintage dated wines are produced and sold exclusively at the winery or by mail order. Tasting and informal tours are offered at the stone winery and underground cellars. There is a tree shaded picnic grove for visitors along with a gourmet delicatessen, which offers nearly 200 cheeses meats, homemade salads and desserts. A well-stocked gift shop offers many wine and cheese related gifts.

Founded in 1983 and located in an historic old winery building in the heart of St. Helena, This winery is surrounded by French oak barrels and casks in a true working winery. Enjoy the friendly atmosphere along with the opportunity to sample and purchase Merryvale's award winning Classic Reserve and Prestige wines produced from the fruit of some of Napa Valley's finest vineyards.

Established in 1996 and takes its inspiration from the distinguished career of its namesake and founder, Mario Andretti, widely regarded as the greatest race car driver of all time. When Mario retired after nearly five decades of competition, a commemorative wine was produced in his honor in 1994. That event sparked an interest in owning a winery. To accomplish this goal he teamed up with his former associate, Joseph E. Antonini, who as President, Chairman and CEO of Kmart, was one of Mario's major sponsors. Together they formed Andretti Wine Group (AWG Limited), a publicly traded stock company, to acquire property and build Andretti Winery, with Joe serving as Chairman and Mario as Vice Chairman.
