About Saddleback Cellars
Saddleback Cellars is a small Oakville winery on Money Road, positioned between Highway 29 and the Silverado Trail but removed from the traffic of both routes. The property's shaded sycamores, Pinot Blanc vines and picnic tables create a relaxed country setting. Its visitor style is intentionally less formal than many neighboring luxury estates.
The current tasting fee is $40 and includes an evolving flight of handcrafted wines. The lineup may include white wines, blends, unusual varieties and Cabernet Sauvignon. The tasting also includes access to the vineyard picnic tables, making Saddleback one of the relatively uncommon Napa appointments where that amenity is explicitly part of the current visitor description.
Appointments are offered daily on the half hour between 10:00 a.m. And 3:00 p.m. Reservations are required. Guests requesting the same day or bringing more than six people should call directly. The winery describes itself as dog-friendly, and friendly guest dogs may share the patio and picnic area. Visitors should still confirm current food rules, supervision expectations and weather conditions before planning a full lunch.
Saddleback is a strong fit for travelers seeking an approachable Oakville stop, dog owners and guests who prefer a quiet picnic-table setting to highly polished hospitality. The location allows easy routing to other Oakville wineries, but the small scale means the reservation time matters.
