About Turnbull Wine Cellars

Turnbull Wine Cellars is a Napa Valley winery in Oakville, founded in 1979. Designed by its own founder, architect William Turnbull, known for California's Sea Ranch development, built the winery himself in a deliberately low-key style that blended into the Oakville landscape. A publisher's second act, newspaper publisher Patrick O'Dell bought the estate in 1993, renamed it, and expanded it with additional Oakville and Calistoga vineyard purchases.

Up to 90 fermentations a year, winemaker Peter Heitz keeps each small vineyard block separate through fermentation, sometimes running as many as 90 individual lots in a single harvest.

Published hours are Daily 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM, reservations are recommended, tasting starts at $40. Hours, fees and reservation policies change, so confirm the current details with the winery before you go.

William Turnbull's 1979 Oakville estate, renamed by publisher Patrick O'Dell in 1993 and still producing single-vineyard estate Cabernet.
