In 1979, the Nickel family revitalized Far Niente, restoring its original grandeur and elevating it to an internationally renowned winery celebrated for Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon in the heart of Oakville, California. Today, as stewards of more than 400 acres of premier Napa and Russian River Valley vineyards, Far Niente Wine Estates’ commitment to quality and sustainability has guided its careful expansion, bringing together a collection of world-class wineries that reflect the diversity of Napa Valley and the Russian River Valley terroirs. The portfolio includes single vineyard, single varietal pioneer Nickel & Nickel; Bella Union, dedicated to showcasing diverse expressions of Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon-based blends; Post & Beam, centered on time-honored techniques used to craft its contemporary style; EnRoute, devoted to world-class Pinot Noir from the Russian River Valley; and Dolce, America’s leading late-harvest wine.
At the heart of Far Niente Wine Estates is a dedication to preserving the Napa legacy while exceeding expectations. This ensures that the estates’ wines remain a beloved symbol of craftsmanship, care for the land, and an enduring commitment to quality.
