Description

This thoughtfully curated half-day experience invites guests into the world of Bella Oaks and Wheeler Farms—where wellness, art, and wine converge across two of Napa Valley’s most distinctive estates. To begin, enjoy a restorative morning at Bella Oaks, a new wine estate four decades in the making. As one of Napa Valley’s most historic vineyards, the Rutherford property has been reimagined under the stewardship and vision of Suzanne Deal Booth—where a sense of place extends beyond the vine. Your experience opens with a light tranquil garden breakfast, followed by a guided morning yoga session set among the vines—an invitation to slow down and connect with the landscape that defines Bella Oaks. Guests will depart with a curated offering of estate-produced botanical products, extending the spirit of the morning beyond the visit. From there, enjoy a rare and intimate tour of Suzanne Deal Booth’s private art collection, featuring site-specific works by Yayoi Kusama, Robert Irwin, Bosco Sodi, and Joel Shapiro. The experience continues with a tasting of current and library releases, showcasing how Deal Booth and Nigel Kinsman have preserved the vineyard’s legacy of producing classic, elegant, and age-worthy single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon. Following your time at Bella Oaks, travel just 10 minutes north to St. Helena for a visit to Wheeler Farms. A tour of the bucolic property—exploring fruit orchards, heritage chickens, bees, vegetable gardens, and organically certified vineyards precedes a seasonal, multi-course lunch crafted by Executive Chef Tom Harder, highlighting ingredients from the property’s organically farmed culinary gardens and paired with Bella Oaks wines. While at Wheeler Farms, guests will also enjoy a tasting of the much-coveted Kinsman Eades wines—Kinsman’s personal project with his wife, Shae—featuring micro-lot, highly expressive Cabernet Sauvignons sourced from some of Napa Valley’s top sites. With a years-long waiting list, these wines are rarely available and even more rarely experienced in such an intimate setting.
