Sip and Savor: Our Favorite Wineries Just Minutes from White House Napa

One of the best parts of staying at White House Napa? You're not just in Napa Valley—you’re in the heart of Napa itself. That means world-class wine is quite literally just minutes away.
Whether you’re looking for a sparkling wine terrace with a view, a bold Cabernet in a hidden hillside estate, or a walkable downtown tasting room to kick off (or finish) your night, we’ve got you covered. Here’s our curated list of top wineries near White House Napa—each one worth a visit, a toast, and probably a second pour.
Domaine Carneros
12 minutes by car | Sparkling & Pinot Noir
This iconic, French-inspired château is as much about the view as it is the bubbly. Think crisp sparkling flights, rich Pinot Noirs, and a terrace built for golden hour. It’s elegant without trying too hard—just like Napa.
Artesa Vineyards & Winery
15 minutes by car | Chardonnay & Pinot Noir
If you like your wine with a side of jaw-dropping architecture and panoramic vineyard views, Artesa delivers. It’s modern, stylish, and a perfect midday stop before lunch or after a Carneros cruise.
Trefethen Family Vineyards
10 minutes by car | Estate Reds & Riesling
Historic, family-owned, and all about sustainability. Their garden tasting space is peaceful and low-key, making it a great option if you want something authentic and a little off the radar.
Ashes & Diamonds
8 minutes by car | Bordeaux-style Reds
Ashes & Diamonds feels like a meticulously designed retro film set—with pastel tones, mid-century lines, and vintage record players. It’s a vibe: playful yet polished, paying homage to Napa’s 1960s era. The Bordeaux-style reds are excellent, but this stop is all about the full sensory experience. Slow down, soak it in, and yes—snap a few photos.
Downtown Napa Tasting Rooms
2–5 minute walk
No car? No problem. Downtown Napa is home to some fantastic tasting rooms that let you sip your way through Napa without ever leaving town:
Great for pre-dinner pours or lazy afternoon lounging.
Hess Persson Estates
20 minutes by car | Bold Reds & Contemporary Art
A little farther out but so worth the trip. This hidden gem on Mt. Veeder pairs powerful wines with a contemporary art collection and mountain serenity. Ideal for guests who want a little adventure with their Merlot.
