Freemark Abbey Winery

The Vibe

This historic winery enjoys the distinction of having been founded by Napa’s first female winery operator, Josephine Tychson. Josephine and her ailing husband purchased land, planted grapes, and built the first winery on the site in the 1880s, under the name of Tychson Cellars. Today, after more than a century of ownership change, Prohibition, and expansion, her portrait still graces the tasting room wall. Now owned by Kendall Jackson, the sunny, spacious tasting room (complete with piano) offers a selection of several cabernets, along with viognier, sauvignon blanc, chardonnay, zinfandel and syrah.
