Situated in the heart of Napa Valley, Sullivan Rutherford Estate spans of 26 acres of vineyards and lush gardens. At the center are the family residence and winery which are open to visitors with an advance appointment. For nearly fifty years the Estate has been an oasis for world-class wine lovers, artists, chefs, friends, and to this day remains a destination for discerning wine collectors. The Estate was founded in 1972 by James ("Jim") O'Neil Sullivan, a visionary of Rutherford, a premier Napa Valley appellation for Cabernet Sauvignon, on the advice of world-renowned wine pioneer André Tchelistcheff. Jim's passion for creating great wine predated the 1976 Judgement of Paris which famously recognized Napa Valley wines as among the best in the world.Today, the Estate continues to build on its legacy of growing and crafting world-class Cabernet Sauvignon. Under new family ownership in 2018, a renewed world-class leadership team is deeply investing in its vineyard and hospitality programs; plans are underway to build a state of the art winery beginning in 2021. Led by entrepreneur Juan Pablo Torres-Padilla, the family-driven ownership recognized some of the best wines in the world as well as the potential to craft a unique, intimate, selective, top-class wine-centric experience. "We're building upon the foundation laid by James O'Neil Sullivan, and the estate he created during his lifetime. His deep commitment to the vineyards and innovative winemaking practices present us with tremendous opportunity. We share his values of hard work, discipline, and the pursuit of excellence in all we do, and we're committed to give to the Estate's wines the recognition they deserve as the best in Rutherford, Napa Valley, and the world," says Torres-Padilla.
