A ballpark classic, with a Napa Valley twist.

As a proud partner of the San Francisco Giants, we asked Winemaker Nicole Marchesi and Master Sommelier Evan Goldstein to explore a pairing fit for the stadium: popcorn and Far Niente Chardonnay. Our Culinary Team put their own spin on the ballpark staple, while Nicole and Evan put it to the test, sharing why popcorn and Chardonnay work so well together.

Every vintage tells a story, and we've collected quite a few over the years.

Deep within our caves, our w**e library is home to historic vintages that have been quietly aging for decades. Tour our Estate with one of our w**e educators and discover the stories waiting underground.

Every detail matters in the final stretch of the growing season.

Our Martin Stelling Estate Vineyard sits quietly in the Oakville morning fog, which keeps the vineyard cool and helps our Cabernet Sauvignon ripen slowly and evenly. By afternoon, western sun reaches the vines, while shade cloths protect the fruit from the most intense rays and encourage steady ripening.

We’ve just completed a thinning pass, leaving only the best clusters on the vines as they continue to develop. Typically one of our later Cabernet vineyards, Martin Stelling is right on schedule this year, with harvest expected in late September.

Harvest has officially begun!

Chardonnay from our Berlenbach Vineyard arrived today as the first fruit of the 2026 vintage, marking the earliest harvest on record at Far Niente. We welcomed the season with Father Mark for our annual Blessing of the Grapes, a cherished tradition before the work ahead begins.

Please join us in wishing Winemaker Nicole Marchesi, Assistant Winemaker Sara Jablow, and our entire w**emaking team a wonderful harvest. Here's to an unforgettable vintage.
