Sun's out, fun's out! What better way to swing into summer than enjoying a glass of refreshing rosé while taking in the golden hills, verdant vines and warmth of the California sun. While there are many Napa Valley wineries offering up rosés (too many to name them all here), we’ve rounded up a few of our favorites:
 

CHANDON

Tucked into the hillside just outside the picturesque Yountville, this sparkling wine house has gorgeous gardens – the perfect spot to escape, relax and reconnect with friends for a leisurely afternoon in the Napa Valley sunshine. Join for wines by the glass or by the bottle. The award-winning CHANDON Brut Rosé is the charmer – a festive pink, this bubbly is lively and dry, perfect for sipping with or without food.
 

Brasswood Estate

Located just north of St. Helena, this state-of-the-art winery features 17,000 square feet of winemaking caves and has three different vineyard AVAs. You can discover their wines courtesy of the Brasswood Cellars Tasting Room, open daily. Experience Napa Valley’s famous charm with a walk-up bar tasting, or opt for a signature sit-down offering outside on the patio. In the hottest months, a refreshing pour of their Rosé of Pinot Noir goes down smooth. Called a “bottle of strawberry rhubarb pie,” it’s bright and zingy, pink and pretty – perfectly summer in a bottle.
 

Alpha Omega Winery

Surrounded by fountains, vineyards, and mountains, the beauty of this modern, farm-style winery is captivating. Alpha Omega’s Rosé Reserve Napa Valley is the perfect complement for your next exotic getaway. Harvested in the sub-appellations of Atlas Peak, Spring Mountain District, Oak Knoll District and more, this refreshing wine brings coral hues and flavors of bright strawberries and candied orange peel to your glass.
 

Round Pond Estate

Located on the main Rutherford crossroads, Round Pond’s estate will leave you breathless the moment you drive on the property – when you arrive, you will be guided in by a driveway framed by towering palm trees. Ask for a pour of their crisp Rosé. It’s an Italian-inspired Rosato di Nebbiolo, flooded with bright berries, wild strawberry flavors, and mouthwatering acidity. In addition to wines, the estate features several imported Italian and Spanish olive trees, producing several premium olive oils that make excellent gourmet gifts.







Peju Winery

Located along scenic Highway 29, Peju Winery has welcomed Napa Valley visitors to its family-owned and operated estate since 1983. Visit to try crowd favorites like Province – a deep ruby wine on the richest side of the Rosé range. When served chilled, it’s “teeming with flavors like cranberry, ripe raspberry and Queen Anne cherries” – perfect for any occasion when red wine seems like too much… and white wine, not quite enough! Get Province or their classic dry Rosé on the tasting menu.
 

Azur Wines

At Azur’s tasting room in Downtown Napa, guests are invited to hang out in an intimate setting and taste limited-production wines. Pop in to the chic, modern tasting lounge for a leisurely glass at the bar, or reserve a tasting in the lounge. Be sure to try the delectable 2022 Azur Rosé d’Or. Elan and Julien Fayard founded Azur Wines and became the first producer to bring the authentic Provençale technique of rosé wine production to the U.S.!
 

Raymond Vineyards

Dip into a winery with quick cool factor at Raymond Vineyards. Tastings are available at multiple indoor and outdoor spots at the winery, but nestled under sycamore trees and flanked by biodynamic vineyards (and Rutherford appellation views), “the Grove” is a favorite. Ask for the LVE Rosé – a collaboration with musician John Legend – or their small-lot estate Rosé of Pinot Noir, the perfect harmony of “passion, eloquence and Napa Valley tradition.”
 

Regusci Winery

Built before prohibition, Regusci Winery is home to one of California’s only ghost wineries and is the oldest family ranch in Napa Valley’s renowned Stags Leap District. The Regusci team describes the 2023 Rosé of Pinot Noir as tart and bright, with “notes of refreshing watermelon rind, sun-kissed dried apricot, and succulent rainier cherry.” This is a quintessential summer wine – refreshing and crowd-pleasing, just like the popular farmstand strawberries you can pick up on Silverado Trail.







Domaine Carneros

Founded by Champagne Taittinger, Domaine Carneros crafts sparkling and still wines from their estate vineyards in the Carneros region of Napa Valley. The Domaine Carneros château is a California wine country landmark and brings to Carneros the elegant style of the French wine country. Sip in summer with the 2018 Late Disgorged Brut Rosé, or their signature Domaine Carneros Brut Rosé. The delicate aromas in the 2020 vintage – watermelon, honeysuckle, grilled peaches, and oranges – fill the senses. À ta santé!
 

Tres Sabores

This California Certified Organic Farm (CCOF) is home to a vast ecosystem that includes sheep, guinea hens, and adorable golden retrievers. Tres Sabores, which is translated as “three tastes,” – their motto is “to explore the three savory flavors in every glass of wine: the taste of the vine, the terroir, and the good company around the table.” The Ingrid & Julia Rosé was crafted in an organic and sustainable fashion and has notes of fresh strawberry aromas and tastes of peach and watermelon. This rosé is perfect for food pairings due to its lower alcohol level and suitable acidity.
 

Hagafen Cellars

Hagafen Cellars has deep roots in Rosé culture. In fact, it’s the first wine this quaint Silverado Trail winery offered in 1979 – just 25 cases got founder Ernie Weir started. In 2023, Ernie and Hagafen celebrated 50 years as a Napa Valley institution. That’s a historic milestone perfectly celebrated with a bright glass of Beret Rosé – a limited edition – or sparkling Brut Rosé, with graceful tiny bubbles and aromas of ripe pomegranate, fresh cranberry, and deep, juicy raspberry.
 

Louis M. Martini Winery

It’s rare, but Napa Valley’s big, rich, and famous Cabernet Sauvignon can be made into a Rosé – and Louis M. Martini Winery nails it. This limited run of crisp Cabernet Sauvignon Rosé is pressed directly after harvest and allowed to sit with the grape skins just for a short time. Watermelon and vine raspberry play on the palate. Sit back in the winery's Martini Park for a relaxed al fresco environment and enjoy a glass, or reserve a private cabana for an elevated experience. Pair with wood-fired pizzas, fire-roasted meats, and more (all available for purchase at the winery).







V. Sattui Winery

V. Sattui Winery is a storied Italian destination in the heart of Napa Valley offering a vast portfolio of 90+ rated wines, each sold only at the winery. Its bustling Italian marketplace features over 200 cheeses, house-cured salumi, and artisanal foods made fresh daily in their own kitchen – perfect for an al fresco picnic on their sprawling shaded grounds with a chilled bottle of rosé. Guests are invited to enjoy a variety of wine tastings and pairings designed to “edu-tain.” Their Bacci Rosato is a proprietary rosé, wafting in with aromas of strawberries, cherries, nectarine, and apricot.
 

Hudson Napa Valley

Situated deep in the rolling hills of Napa’s Carneros District, Hudson Ranch is a marvel of eco-travel – home to world-class vineyards, orchards, and a working farm, it’s also fiercely protective of the 2,000 acres of wildlands it surrounds. Owner Lee Hudson and wife Cristina established the ranch in 1981. Together, they produce wine grapes and olive oil and raise heritage breed pigs, lambs, and chickens, in addition to tending seasonal crops for their grocery store, Hudson Greens & Goods. The property is an explorer’s dream – guests can hike, picnic, and enjoy endless views while catching a breath with the estate’s crisp Grenache Rosé.
 

Judd's Hill Winery

Located on the Silverado Trail, just one mile north of Downtown Napa, Judd's Hill Winery is one of the few wineries in Napa Valley that is still family-owned and family-run. Their Judd's Hill 2023 Rosé of Pinot Noir might make you speak sonnets – it's a fantastic brunch wine, “with notes of strawberry and Sumo citrus.” This is a great welcome wine for a garden party – dare you to find a bottle that, by any other name, would smell as sweet.
