At Ballentine Vineyards, we farm 75 acres across 3 estate vineyards and grow 8 different grape varietals right here in Napa Valley. 🍇

Our days are warm, our nights cool, and yes...the fog likes to make an appearance sometimes too. Turns out, the grapes absolutely love it.

From crisp Chenin Blanc and floral Malvasia Bianca to bold Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Zinfandel, Malbec, and Merlot, there’s a wine for every kind of wine lover here.

The hardest part is choosing a favorite. So tell us...what’s your go to wine? 🍷

New single vineyard wine anyone? Because the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon from Pocai Vineyard is already stealing the spotlight around here. Bold fruit, layered structure, and the kind of wine that practically demands a grilled ribeye with Cabernet compound butter alongside it.

Lucky for you, we already did the pairing homework. Head to our website for the full pairing recipe and see why this newest release was made for unforgettable dinners, impressive pours, and second bottles.

Have you ever had dinner in the vineyards? Because there’s just something different about wine country at sunset with a glass of Napa Valley wine in hand. 🍷

At Ballentine Vineyards, we host private celebrations and team gatherings that feel relaxed, memorable, and unmistakably Napa Valley. Think multi-course dinners among the vines, estate wines flowing all evening, golden hour lighting, and the kind of atmosphere where everyone lingers a little longer than planned.

If you’re visiting Napa Valley and looking to do something beyond the typical tasting room experience, this might be your sign to host your next private event at the winery.

Just one small request... leave the stilettos at home. Vineyard chic only. 🌿

Sparkling wine is good for celebrations. Sparkling Malvasia is good for absolutely no reason at all. Bright, floral, energetic, and just fun and plain delicious.

Now we need your opinion while sipping a glass of our Sparkling Malvasia:

Are you more Don Ho’s:

🎶 “Tiny bubbles
In the wine
Make me happy
Make me feel fine…”

or Pharrell Williams’:

🎶 “Because I’m happy…Clap along if happiness is the truth”

One feels like vintage island lounge vibes. The other feels like sunshine in a glass. No judgement here... honestly, the wine tastes good with either vibe. :)

Have you ever noticed how happy people are at wineries? 🍷

There’s just something magical about opening a bottle of wine and sharing it with friends, both old and new. Even if you’re not in Napa Valley, a good bottle of wine has a way of bringing people together.

For four generations, our family has been honored to be part of so many people’s wine journey. Honestly, it feels pretty special to make something people get excited about, gather around, and want to share with the people they love.

As long as you keep enjoying what we do, we’ll keep making great wine for you. Cheers!

Our estate wines start with all the hard work in the vineyards. And this year? Our vines are SO happy. Napa Valley warmed up fast and everything is growing like crazy right now.

This time of year, we are “suckering” the vines. Sounds funny, but it is one of the most important things we do behind the scenes. We remove unnecessary growth that steals energy away from the grapes so the vine can focus on producing the best fruit possible. Bonus: the rows start looking extra tidy too.

A lot of little decisions and long vineyard days go into every bottle we make. This is just one of them. Stay tuned for more fun vineyard updates because honestly, things are getting exciting out there. 🍇☀️

Do you know how sparkling wine is bottled? ✨🍾
Here’s a behind the scenes look at the magic of bubbles coming to life.

Our 2023 Sparkling Malvasia Bianca is officially in bottle! Each one represents two years of patience, precision, and a little sparkle waiting to be revealed.

Grown in Betty’s Vineyard (featured in the background) and crafted using méthode traditionalle, we set out to do this wine the right way, from vine to bottle.

Beautifully aromatic, with delicate, tiny bubbles, this wine is truly a cause for celebration. Here’s a peek at those final touches before it makes its way into your glass.

Stay tuned, it’ll be heading your way soon. 🥂
