William Hill Estate Winery

Lovely spot for wine tasting just outside the town of Napa. Everything is right about this winery— great wines, friendly staff, and best of all, an amazing view of Napa Valley. I visit Napa often and this has to be one of the best views. We were there for sunset and it was breathtaking. Elizabeth was a great, welcoming server. We enjoyed her company very much.

Phenomenal views.... and chardonnay! The outside environment of the vineyard is so relaxing with many private areas to sit. The tastings were brought to your seat and each was expertly presented. Thank you for the amazing experience.

Absolutely wonderful wine . Got in on a last minute wine tasting booking in the late afternoon . Very reasonable tasting price at $30pp, we had a tasting flight, the unoaked chardonnay was magnificent. Malbec was my personal fav, bought 3 bottles. The view is spectacular, even though it was raining it was so nice and peaceful. Our server, Elizabeth, was lovely and so friendly, went out of her way to make us feel ok and happy. I would 100% recommend this winery.

William Hill Estate Winery was absolutely phenomenal! The views were amazing, and the seating was spaced out and private. The wine selection was amazing, all four wines tasted were of high quality and paired well with the little platter of snacks that are included in the “Estate Tasting”. Most importantly Lisa M. had the best customer service I think I’ve ever experienced. Her personality and attitude towards the wine and Napa, in general, were very welcoming and positive. Lisa alone made the whole experience more enjoyable! I highly recommend Willam Hill Estate Winery.

We had the first morning appointment time and only one other group was there. Felt very personalized and intimate. We really enjoyed the view and that they do a food pairing with each tasting.

Happy Friday! This was our first stop in NAPA. Didn’t do the tour but really enjoyed the lounge chairs and views of the estate. Our group was split on their tasting wines. I preferred the second chard and the cab sauv- my besties enjoyed the first Napa chard and the petit Verdot. Nice little stop next to Silverado resort.

This was our first winery visit and I'm guessing it's going to be our best. The picnic atmosphere, our great guide Cameron, and of course the delicious wine made it a spectacular visit. I highly recommend you put this winery on your to-do list when coming here.

My boyfriend and I traveled to William Hill Estate Winery back in October and had the most amazing tasting experience outside with a wonderful tour guide. At the end of our trip, we both agreed it was our favorite outdoor tasting experience we had while touring all of Napa!

BILL HILL! For years this has been one of my favorite spots in Napa, for a few reasons: 1) The view is simply unbeatable. The patio spots are stunning and there are so many panoramic views of the vineyards. 2) It doesn't feel crowded or jam-packed. Flights are affordable and they can accommodate groups. 3) Their whites are delicious: crisp sauvy b, oaky but approachable chard - and it's a much-needed respite from the heavy cabs of other spots in Napa. I am SO devastated to hear of their winery closure, and will definitely still be supporting with wine purchased here in Minnesota!

William Hill is truly one of the nicer, more bougie spots we visited while in Napa. When you pull up, you meander up a path to a private parking lot and then walk into the tasting room. The tasting room is serene, and modern. Think very clean lines, and professional staff working the bar. We had a reservation so I can't speak to just walking in and getting a wine tasting, but despite an early reservation, we had a great time. Their grounds are INSANE. Just so gorgeous, so I highly recommend sitting outside at one of their many tables nestled into a patio that overlooks the vineyards. If you don't do this it's just not the same experience. We enjoyed a leisurely tasting while taking in the Napa scenery. It's especially nice because they will bring out your next glass in a timely, but not rushed manner, and explain all about each wine. I thought the person who walked us through everything was super nice, approachable, and professional. Honestly a really great experience overall.

William Hill is absolutely insane. The views are spectacular, the wine is amazing, and everyone is SO friendly. We arrived at our tasting time at 10am (it's 5 o'clock somewhere) and were greeted with smiles. The staff member that helped us said she would be pouring our first tasting and for us to take a seat outside. It was sunny out and absolutely beautiful. We took lots of photos while we were waiting and we just soaked in the moment. The wine was brought out to us on a tray and we were given the educational portion of the Chardonnay which was so neat. This Chardonnay was amazing and tasted more like a Pinot Grigio. The tasting comes with a menu to refer back to which was really helpful. We continued our tastings and everything was so delicious with a great variety of tastes. We had so much fun here and I would definitely come back!

What a gorgeous winery! This winery has tons of outdoor space that overlooks the Napa Valley perfectly. This is a great spot for photo opps and scenic views over some quality wine. Our wine tasting was awesome here; we tried various wines from chardonnay to pinot noir and more. I can't remember her name for the life of me but the employee who guided our wine tasting was amazing! So friendly and informative. The tasting was also very affordable. The winery inside was so clean and polished. The outdoor space was huge with tons of seating, tables, and pretty views. I would definitely come back here and I recommend it to others. Not a complaint anywhere!

Absolutely unreal views from this hilltop estate. The weather was definitely a paid actor as we had gorgeous, cloudless sunny skies, with amazing views of the rolling hills of Napa. We had signed up for a tasting and our wine expert brilliantly described the accurate flavors and taste we were experiencing with each wine. We also were able to have an extra glass of whatever favorites, which was amazing there also was getting the shots for Instagram, and there are plenty of backdrops that will make every single photo of your stunning. I highly recommend adding this to your wine tasting stops if you're in the valley

Amazing winery. Good wines, excellent service, beautiful property and views, affordable tastings. Only drawback is maybe no outside food, but maybe half of wineries don't allow anyway so can't penalize them for that Tasting was $35 for 5 wines. 3 whites (1 not written on tasting menu) and 2 reds. You can't beat that in the Napa region where almost all are $50+. All wines were good or at least decent, not a single bad one. Good sized pours, not stingy like some other wineries. 2 bottle purchase to waive a tasting fee Service was excellent. Such nice staff. Water was provided and refilled as needed. They explained all the wines and even allowed us to taste some off menu wines that they had open and they were all typical tasting sized pours. So generous. Best to have a reservation. I called in 30 mins ahead of time the day of and they were able to accommodate Property was beautiful and had nice views as well. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Plenty of parking Was planning to just pay the tasting fees since the wines themselves were not cheap (not overpriced either), but they gave me a deal and I ended up buying their most expensive bottle lol. Will definitely be back in the future

I made reservations about two weeks before over the phone. It was super easy and simple to do. The walk up to the front from the parking was really nice. There was patio seating outside with comfy couches and patio tables around a nice fountain. There are some patio seating under trees which was nice and they have umbrellas if needed. If you get there early, you can get seating with views of the vineyard hills. We were greeted at the door and welcomed in to check in. We received our first flight at the tasting room and welcomed to choose to sit inside or outdoor. We choose seething under a tree. After settling in, our host came and explained each pour in detail. Very informative. He brought the 3 pours for each of us at the same time to allow us to taste at our leisure which was very nice. Over all, whad a great experience with views and beautiful spots to take photos!

Loved this tasting so much! Incredible views, great wines, really sweet server (wish I'd caught her name!), so close to the Silverado Resort, and such a relaxing vibe. Tasting was $35 / person and an extra $15 / person for a small food pairing (cheese, crackers, and nuts mostly). We probably didn't need the food but it was a nice option. And when we asked to try 2 more wines, she brought both tastings for both of us. I wish I'd discovered this spot sooner and would love to come back!

The only thing this winery has going is their million dollar view. Not only did I not like any of the wines we tasted, they gave me an instant headache and I knew I shouldn't drink them right away. Service was okay. When the lady was telling us about the owner, it suddenly made sense why the wine was so bad. Same owner as the other winery I hated two days prior. Massive headache then too. They add something to the wine that makes for an awful experience. Go somewhere else.

Very nice estate tasting experience. You start inside with a taste of an unoaked Chardonnay, and then they take you to an outside table and bring a tray with four other wines. The 2019 red blend was stupendous. They also serve nibbles and a carafe of water. And the views are to die for. One of the nicest tasting experiences we have enjoyed in Napa.

Basic but good winery to end your day at. We chilled out on the patio with nice views for our tasting. Host brings you a tray of 4 tastings per person (kinda on the small side fyi). We made reservations at 4 pm but it didn't seem that crowded on a late Saturday afternoon.

Amazing views and amazing wine! The overall experience at William Hill from beginning to end was a 10/10! The customer service and attentiveness we received was superb! The wine host "Quinn" was very knowledgeable and we learned a ton about wine!!! We did a tasting and left with a few bottles! Their wine is extraordinary and I will definitely be returning my next time in Napa!

Gorgeous views and delicious wines! I had visited William Hill a few years ago on a girls trip and remembered the views were gorgeous. My return trip did not disappoint! It didn't help that we had an absolutely beautiful day-sunny, not too warm- that we could sit outside and enjoy the views in the sun. The tasting was also great. We got a welcome glass of wine upon arriving and were told to find a seat wherever outside and they'd bring everything out. We found a seat under a gazebo with great views. Pretty quickly we were brought a tray with four wines (each) and some snacks (note the snacks are just enough to taste with the sips of wine, they're not enough to fill you up. We weren't planning on them doing that but fair warning). We got a brief explanation and then our server checked in a few times. There were a few other groups/couples there when we were, but there was plenty of spread-out seating so it was easy not to feel crowded. I ended up purchasing one of their higher-end bottles of wine and they ended up comping one of the tastings as a result (was not expecting it, but was a nice bonus). Everyone was friendly and it was a great experience overall!

I've been a member for about 10 years. I only visited once, and joined that day. Since, I have enjoyed my wines shipped every quarter. I was planning a trip back to Napa and was excited to visit again, and unfortunately will never get the chance. I'm very disappointed that this beautiful location will be closing the tasting room and wine club. I hope I am able to find another similar winery to join in Napa. My Oregon wineries are great, but nothing beats these rich Napa flavors.

If you're looking for a beautiful spot to overlook the valley and chit chat, William Hill is the spot. We hit up WH for our 3rd winery of the day around 4pm and we're amongst only 2 other small groups. They had tons of great outdoor seating and exceptional service. The hill overlooks their 200 acres of grapes which is perfect for that wine tasting insta pic. They have a 4 glass tasting for $30, which was the most affordable option in Napa. However, after having tried so many good wines that day, the wine here was subpar.

I came to visit from Los Angeles for the weekend and came across this winery when I purchased the Priority Wine Pass (which I do recommend if you are looking for deals and multiple winery visits). First of all, the views here are BREATHTAKING. I loved the scenery so much and definitely a cute place for the full Napa experience. Second, the service was 10/10. I regret not getting the name of our server but he was very attentive and made our tasting fun. He was very knowledgeable and even let us start our tasting an hour earlier because we were there already. We did the overlook wine tasting, and we were able to get 2 tastings for the price of 1. My fave wine from the tasting we did was both of their Chardonnays. Our server was ALSO so nice enough to give us an extra pour free of charge because we loved the wine so much. Thank you so much for a great first time experience at Napa. I recommend William Hill Estate winery.

We came to William Hill for a tasting and it was a wonderful spot for a more chill setting. You get to choose the seats you want outside, which are all facing their vineyard. The tasting came with a starter glass of their Spring Mountain chardonnay, which was a light and refreshing start to the tasting. We chose our seats, and then they brought out the rest of the flight of wines. They brought out 4 more glasses for each person, and included little bites on the side. The snacks they chose paired so well with each of the wines in the tasting, I was actually obsessed with their candied orange-honey almonds! The service was great, and everyone was knowledgeable of the estate and wines. I liked that this spot is more hands-off, they bring you the wines you will be tasting and then give you time to try everything without rushing you. I ended up buying a bottle of their cabernet franc, which was my favorite of the reds we had. Overall, a really good spot for a tasting if you want a more relaxed environment.

Gorgeous views of the valley and the tasting experience was great - the staff were very knowledgeable and attentive, and even brought us an extra taste of something we were interested in. My husband says he had the best cabernet sauvignon of his life here. Definitely worth it for the reasonable prices and extensive views!

One of my new favorite Napa wineries! I have the Priority Wine Pass which is how I learned about this winery. They are featured on the pass and pass holders get 2 for 1 overlook tastings here. I came for my first time in April with some friends and it ended up being our favorite winery experience, so of course I had to bring my husband and more friends back with me this time! The overlook tasting is $30/person for a flight of four wines on their stunning terrace that overlooks the vineyards. They also have a reserve tasting for $45/person. The overlook terrace is breathtaking. We just went in November and got to see all the red, yellow, and orange fall colors on the vines. Even with several other tasting groups in the outdoor table seating area, we were the only ones on the terrace which made our experience quiet and peaceful. When I came in April, they brought out the wines one at a time and gave details about each wine we were currently about to try. This time, the wines were all pre-poured into glasses and the man helping us discussed all the wines up front before the tasting began. I think I would have preferred hearing about each wine one at a time as we started to drink them instead of all four at once, but not a big deal for us. It was just nice to have our wine out on the terrace and enjoy the views! They also give pretty good pours for the tasting. The wines were not the best ones we tried that day, but the overall experience with the views and ambiance were certainly the best and will keep bringing me back.

Cameron and Quinn accommodated us during our overlook tasting, such good vibes and great wine definitely recommend

The ambiance here. So much more peaceful than most Napa wineries, and they play jazz music outside. I'm not a big fan of their wines, but I'm a big fan of spending time with my friends at this vineyard. It's 45 pp for tastings and reservations are online. They did an excellent job with social distancing also.

Scenery: 5 stars Service: 1 star We went this past Friday, and had a reservation for 1230p. Showed up, and the place was empty. That being said, the team couldnt us out of there faster -- its almost they didnt want us there. They rushed our tasting, gave 1 pour, and within 10 min, gave us the final 3 together and mentioned that our bill was settled. So we were actually out of there within 20 min. Wasnt even asked if we'd want to get a bottle! Again, if it was busy...Id maybe understand, but with no one there and for a pretty expensive tasting -- the service was the worst in all my years going to Napa. To make matters worse, when we entered, the front host was eating his lunch and talked to us mid bite. And we were being served by a college intern...who still has a ton to learn when serving and working at such a seemingly prestigious institution. Finally, what broke my heart -- we saw an elderly couple visiting from Maine trying to get a tasting -- given the place was empty, you'd think they accept them. Nope. So this poor couple was left walking around. Fortunately, we had just come Paraduxx...I called them up asking if they could accommodate this couple. And despite being full, Paraduxx took them. A complete opposite customer experience from Willam Hill.

While visiting Napa we made reservations at William Hill since we really enjoy their wines while at home. The interesting thing about visiting some familiar wineries is that they seem to distribute one line of wine, yet have so much more, smaller batches, etc when visiting. This particular winery actually didn't seem to offer what we get from our local wine shop, but they offered so many more wines, that were of higher quality, as well as many more vintages and varietals, including library wines. Our wine educator was very helpful and friendly, allowing us to taste everything we were interested in, which lead to him selling us a case and also having us sign up for a membership! They have a very knowledgeable staff there and they are very accommodating. The wine store has interesting souvenirs as well as very nice and clean restrooms. The view from the top of this hill, overlooking their massive vineyard was stunning too! Definitely can't wait to return!

William Hill Estate Winery is one of my favorite wineries in Napa. Their wine is exceptional and their views are breath taking. I first came here with my girlfriends and enjoyed it so much I came back with my hubby. As soon as you walk in, you're greeted with a glass of wine (Chardonnay). Their basic wine flight comes with 4 wines to try per person (2 whites and 2 reds) and it also comes with bread and olive oil - all for a great price $25. Their views are like no other, it's the perfect pair with the tasty wine. Next time I come back to Napa, I plan on visiting them 3rd time. Make sure to add them to your next visit, you can easily make a reservation on Yelp.

Wonderful view. Wine choices top notch. A Must visit when in Napa. Right on the boarder of the Silverado, another good stop if your in the area

Amazing view! Great wines! Joe was so much fun! We had a couple glasses of wine from the property. Yes, we will return.

Amazing winery! Really great customer service and friendly staff! The views are immaculate

We visited 3 wineries, William Hill was our last stop of the day. All three stops were very different experiences. Bouchaine was right in our wheelhouse. Visitors were between 30-60, very relaxed but classy with gorgeous views. Blankiet was very exclusive, also with wonderful views and great wine. William Hill had a younger, hipper crowd. Views were fantastic, Joe was laid back and fun. Good wine, tasting fees ($30 per person) were waived with our wine purchase.

Best atmosphere for wine tasting on the patio! Service was on point and enjoyed the small snacks served with the tasting flight!

Such yummy wine and amazing service, truly a lovely experience. The view is also absolutely stunning in every which way.

While the wine is good, and I bought a bottle, the experience leaves you wanting more. The tasting room is a small white bar. The tastings are a little more expensive if you want anything different than white wine, lucky for me I'm a white wine girl! 4 pours for $35 and only 3 are only available on site. The girl that helped us had only been working there for about 2 weeks, but was nice and friendly. I wish I could have heard more about the wines and the history of the winery while I was tasting. After tasting at a few places that made your time at their winery an experience, this place just left me wanting more.

Last weekend was my first time at William Hill and I had a wonderful time. I was impressed by the view of the vast vineyards along the hills and the modern ambiance of the tasting room. I felt welcome and the view was absolutely breathtaking. I believe the tasting was $30 and it included 5-6 generous pours. I forgot the name of the gentleman that served us but he was friendly, knowledgeable, and also from the Bay Area. William Hill is popular for their Chardonnays. I'm a big, bold, full body, red wine type of gal and still enjoyed their nice chilled whites. Their cabs are on the dryer side but also good. There's plenty of covered patio seating towards the back if you want to stay cool in the shade. If it's not too hot I would suggest bringing a picnic blanket to lay out on their huge open lawn while taking multiple pictures with the beautiful backdrop of Napa. Cheers!

As I previously left a review, earlier in January.... And loved William hill. We loved it so much we returned back in October and unfortunately we're left disappointed. While we were late to our tasting, we were treated as if we were not wanted there. We came in understanding we were late and were perfectly fine experiencing a tasting within 20 mins yet our table was taken away from us and were treated as if they could care less that we were there. Little do they know we are members of several wineries here in napa and William hill was next on our list...

Came to Napa Valley in January, and absolutely loved it. Joe was our sommelier and absolutely amazed us. Decided to return back in October and was EXTREMELY disappointed. We were 30 mins late to our reservation... and we're completely accommodating to only being at our tasting for 20-30 mins however, Quentin was completely rude and un-accommodating.. although we were late our table was already taken away from us. And no exceptions were made. We were rushed, and truly felt dismissed. William hill is a beautiful property. But customer service super exceeds property. And customer service was definitely below level. We felt discriminated against because there were 2 other tables still there... seated and yet we were told we weren't able to get a table. Even if it would've been for 10 mins. Wine is wine. Especially in Napa. Customer service is what makes you buy, become a member, and refer this place as a must place to visit. Unfortunately, i would not recommend returning.

I took a friend to this winery who was visiting from out of state, and I think it was honestly the best place to give someone a feel for wine country, etc. The tasting room and outdoor area were both very nice and there was a great view of the hills and vines which I have felt like was missing at places I visited in the past. I got the package that came with cheese and other little snacks. Some places don't offer something like that so I was super, super happy. Moreover, the prices were decent and I felt like I got what I paid for. My only real complaint is that there was a large group of college-aged girls that were blasting their own music and bringing in outside snacks. It was overall just very loud and disruptive to my own experience, but I'm not sure if there is much the employees could have done, other than maybe remind them of the policies. Despite that little hiccup, I will definitely be coming back the next time I am in the area.

$30 pp tasting, you can get a pour, hang out in their patio area. The open terrace offers amazing views or the vineyards and beyond! They have some really cool hang out spots designed to chill while you sip on your wines. The tasting we got had 2 whites and 2 reds - one blend and one malbec, we really liked the malbec.

When I first called to make a reservation for 2 Overlook Tastings, they said that Overlook was entirely "sold out" and that they can only accommodate Estate Tasting, which was wine and food pairing. When we arrived, there were only 2 other groups with plenty of open socially distanced seating. Not sure why the Overlook Tasting was "sold out"? Service was a little weird. We checked in with our reservation and they immediately poured us 4 glasses of white and didn't quite explain what the white was and told us that it was "open outdoor seating, so go find a seat and we'll come find you". I was immediately confused because I specifically booked a tasting for 2 with party of 4 (we had 2 designated drivers). But hey, we're already there...so we went ahead and found our outdoor seats. As soon as we sat down, they came out with a tray of 4 flights, 4 metal boxes with snacks, handed each of us a wine club pamphlet, said "enjoy", and left. We were left slightly confused and not quite sure how to proceed. It would have been nice to learn a little about the wine and history while we were there, but I guess I can always google that when I got home. The "Estate Tasting" can be re-labeled to "Tasting with random snacks". When I made the reservation after they made me to book the Estate Tasting, they mentioned that this would be a curated pairing of wine and snacks. It was nice to have something to nibble on, but when we finally found someone to ask about what food pairs with what, the response we got was "don't worry about it". The wine we tasted were really good, we all liked the 2nd red. Would have purchased a few bottles but the entire service was kind of weird so we paid and left empty handed.

This winery was an excellent experience for my friends and I. The wine testing was great and the scenery is gorgeous. The service is excellent as well thanks to cam and joe. Joe has excellent customer service and we can't thank him enough!!! I would Definitely come back here when I am in napa again!

Location was nice, I appreciate the spacing of the tables and even a warmer just to be more comfortable. They bring out the wine at once so reducing human contact given the current climate. The workers were very hospitable and a nice place to stop by and enjoy the scenery.

This place was absolutely perfect in every way imaginable. The winery is scenic as hell, surrounded by stunning hills with majestic homes nestled into a far off hillside. Our host / server (Joe) was like some kind of Napa Jesus ushering us into wine heaven. He was extremely knowledgeable, yet down to Earth and funny. We sampled 4 different wines paired with snacks that complimented their unique chemistries. It was wild and fantastic and almost biblical in how awesome everything worked together. Loved this place so much. I'm not sure when / if we'll ever have the opportunity to return to Napa, but if we do, we will absolutely return to William Hill to see Joe and drink the incredible wine.

Call ahead or book an appointment on line. You may be asked to sit outside in a beautiful vineyard environment. It's a special experience especially for a couple or family group. I mentioned the Yelp check in and they upgraded our tasting to include bread and olive oil instead of popcorn trio. A very relaxing noontime retreat!

This was such a beautiful venue. We stumbled across this when we were in Napa for the weekend because they had reservations directly on yelp. By the time I wanted to book the tasting, the reservations on yelp were gone but I called and they took us anyway! The outside patio area was gorgeous surrounded with hills. I can see weddings being held here. They said they use the flat field area with patio lights strung up everywhere for their member events. We ordered the library tasting and the regular one. I liked their whites but not so much their reds. The cheese and nuts platter it came with were fantastic though. I could not get enough of that cheese they had! Overall, I really enjoyed the peacefulness and beauty this winery had. I'd definitely want to come back for an event or with a larger group.

First time at the winery! Their wine are very unique and delicious, the wine host is friendly very knowledgeable about their winery . Great place to visit , quiet luxury!

Thank you Joe and Cameron for an amazing wine tasting. You made our Napa experience so amazing. The wine was amazing. 100% recommend. Thank you for the great conversation and food recommendations Make sure you make a reservation.

Visited during a recent trip to Napa. I was staying in a condo down the street and was able to book a late Sunday afternoon tasting time. The grounds are beautiful - and was just a perfect day! The wines were all good, too. I was especially impressed at how they were managing safety during COVID. Very clear that they are going to great lengths to make it a safe experience and environment. Thank you for a great afternoon and escape!

This is one of my favorite winery at Napa. Gorgeous location. Comfortable seating style. Great way to hangout with friends while drinking wine. Amazing red wine selections. Will definitely come back again.

Lovely wine tasting experience with awesome wines (especially the fancy Chardonnay. Our pourer was awesome too!!

It was our first time in Napa. We enjoyed our time at the Williams Hill winery. The view was amazing, wine was awesome too. Our hostess was very accommodating, and knowledgeable. Would recommend going to this Winery in your travels!

This is our first trip to Napa and William Hill was our first winery. We loved everything about it. The grounds were laid out very well. You can tell this is the show horse for the Gallo family where ultra premium wines are made. When we arrived we met Darryl. He introduced us to the vineyard and explained a lot about who they were and what they did there (premium wine). We then tasted several amazing wines and talked for a long while. We also met Dak and Kevin who engaged us not only about wine but about baseball and bourbon. By the end of that tastings it seemed more like friends talking than a formal tasting. We enjoyed the tasting so much we came back the second day for a more in depth tour of the vineyard and their process. Extremely interesting and informative. We loved everything about this place and of course joined our first wine club. In my opinion this is a must visit!
