My husband and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary with a trip to Napa. When we searched for boutique wineries, we found Judd's Hill and quickly found their wine making experience. I reserved online, set it up, played a little phone tag, and everything was perfect upon arrival.
My husband and I can't recommend this enough, as it takes you out of the typical wine tasting experience, and lets you try your hand at your own blend.
Thanks, Judd's Hill!

Our host was congenial and very well informed on the wines served. We found all but one of the ~ six wines excellent, and several were very unique (in a nice way), reflecting skilled winemakers, in our view. The location was easy to find and the tasting room and surroundings very attractive.

We had the best experience during our visit! Judd's Hill has a very intimate and beautiful setting and the wines were very good. It was so much fun that I became a member. I don't remember her name now, but the lady that helped us with the tasting experience was great! and fun to talk with. My girlfriend and I were so glad we visited that day!

My wife, kids and their "significant others" - all told a group of 6 of us recently did a wine tasting and bottle blending class at Judd's. WOW!! What a great time had by all. This was my 6th visit to Napa but the first time I've visited Judd's Hill and "hands down" the best experience I've had at a Napa winery. The staff was so friendly and professional. The wines are exceptional ( we joined their wine club) and the scenery was spectacular....vineyards surrounding the winery in all directions. Kudos to Ryan for making the bottle blending class so informative and fun. We even had the pleasure of meeting Judd and his mom Bunny - two very nice down to earth people clearly passionate about what they do. This winery should be on everyone's short list of wineries to visit when in Napa. You won't regret it

Jamie from Priority Wine Pass recommended Judd’s Hill. This is a small winery that produces 3000 cases. It is a beautiful setting as you look out upon two different farmers vineyards. It is rather interesting as the vineyards are planted in exactly opposite directions. We tasted grapes directly from the vine in both vineyards. Our host was friendly and knowledgeable. The wines were good.

Just Wow! Where do I begin?! Had the best experience doing the Bottle Blending class with my fiancè and his family at Judd’s Hill. Our wine guide, Ryan, was knowledgeable and fun, helping us create the perfect blend to take home and remember our trip with. The wine? Incredible! Loved it so much we joined the wine club. Judd and Bunnie Finkelstein even came over to introduce themselves and ensure we were enjoying our time. Between the stunning vineyard views, delicious wine, and unique and fun wine bottling class, it was truly a once in a lifetime experience! Also, our group favorite vineyard of a trip filled with lots of wine.

We spent an enjoyable afternoon tasting wine at Judd Hill. The scenery was pretty, our host was knowledgeable and attentive and the wine was good. They accept the Priority Wine Pass for a two for one tasting experience.

I recently had the pleasure of spending a warm December Saturday afternoon on Judd's Patio over looking a picturesque section of California wine country. After driving over the quaint bridge off the Silverado Trail we all felt that we had left the busy road and our busier lives behind while we sat in the sun and sampled their fine selection of red wines. The setting was peaceful and bucolic, the service was gracious and unhurried, and the wine was pleasurable at the beginning and glorious by the end.

Judd’s Hill has everything a Napa winery should: Excellent, varied and reasonably priced wines, an extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff, and a familial and scenic ambience.
Located only minutes from downtown Napa, near the foot of the Silverado Trail, Judd’s Hill is a small gem that should not be missed.....and their wine club parties, cruises and other perks provide additional reasons to form a more permanent relationship with these fine folk.

Well, what can I say. Of the 7 Napa wineries we visited, this was the biggest taste disappointment. The wines left much to be desired although Ryan was great with his information. However, all taste is subjective and it might be “da bomb” for someone else! Judd's Hill is a Priority Wine Pass participant.

I'd like to know if it's necessary to make appointment to visit this winery and if it's charged (in this case how much).
Written February 12, 2016
Yes do make a reservation, unless you go on a weekday. It could be a hit or miss, so to be safe, its best to make an appointment.
