Paradigm Winery
Paradigm Winery is located on Dwyer Road just south of the Oakville grade in Oakville. Ironically, one of the "best" ways to find this winery used to be a sign in front of Dwyer Road just off of Highway 29 that read, "No Wineries This Road." This sign worked extremely well to discourage the typical visitor driving down Highway 29 to enter this small road. … [Read more...]
Parador Cellars
Parador Cellars, not to be confused with the El Parador wines from Spain, is run by Steve Ventrello (who we originally met with at his home); Steve is also the winemaker but it was abundantly clear from some of the musical instruments scattered around his home that he truly enjoys music - for fun he plays the accordion and guitar.

Their estate vineyard is only 1/2 acres; it sits slightly above the Silverado Trail in the north part of the valley. It was planted by one of the most respected vineyard management companies in the valley - Abreu … [Read more...]

Patz & Hall Winery was located in the most unique location you will ever see for a winery - in the middle of Napa's main corporate business center! For reference, this business park is located south of the town of Napa. Instead of visiting your mortgage broker or real estate agent like you would in a typical commercial business park, you visit this wineries' … [Read more...]
Pavi Wines
Pavi Wines was founded by a husband wife team, Rob (not to be confused with the photographer of the same name in the UK) and Pavi Lawson (now Pavi Michele).
