Judd’s Hill

The Vibe

The tasting space at Judd’s Hill is unique in that (1) it’s not really a tasting room, it’s more like a dining room table in an unusually cozy conference room and (2) it isn’t housed in your typical Napa Valley winery. It’s actually part of a larger MicroCrush facility that helps ambitious wine lovers produce as little as one barrel of their own juice. Judd's Hil was founded and is run by a family that’s been involved in Napa winemaking for more than 30 years. Art Finkelstein, a founder of the well-known Whitehall Lane winery, decided in the late 1980s to forego the large production lifestyle and get back to his roots -- a hands on role in winemaking. The result was Judd's Hill, which today still produces fewer than 3,000 cases of their private label cab, zin, chardonnay and pinot.
