About Rudd Estate
Rudd Estate is an Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon house founded by the late Leslie Rudd (owner of Dean & DeLuca and Edmond Rudd/Fog Head ventures), known for its striking, architecturally distinctive winery on Oakville Cross Road amid some of Napa's most decorated Cabernet ground.
In April 2026, Rudd Estate was acquired by St. Supéry Estate Vineyards & Winery, itself owned by the French luxury house Chanel, in a deal widely reported at more than $39 million, one of the more consequential Napa Valley ownership changes of the year. Multiple industry outlets (Napa Valley Register, Wine Spectator, The Drinks Business, Press Democrat) covered the sale; what it means long-term for Rudd's brand identity, winemaking team, and visiting experience was still unfolding as of this research and should be confirmed directly.
Alongside the flagship RUDD Oakville Estate Cabernet program, the property is also home to Crossroads by Rudd, an organically farmed sister label. Public tastings are hosted as "Crossroads House at Rudd Estate," bookable through Tock, including a seated tasting and a picnic-style "Fancy-Pants Picnic" tasting-plus-lunch option.
