BEYOND THE LABEL

SET YOUR SIGHTS ON ST. HELENA

Follow Interstate 80 to Route 29 and join us in the heart of Napa.

JUNE 6, 2025

Dwarfed by Mt. Saint Helena to the north, the bustling city of St. Helena is hardly a quaint roadside stop. Among the sprawling vineyards, historic chateaus and Michelin-starred restaurants lies our recently reinvented Tasting Room, worth planning a trip around.

From San Francisco, it’s a quick 90 minute drive along Interstate 80 and Highway 29 to St. Helena, right in the heart of Napa Valley. The St. Helena AVA (or American Viticultural Area) is one of Napa’s most unique, encompassing the narrowest part of the Valley with an unusually broad range of soils and microclimates.

Orin Swift Tasting Room in the heart of St. Helena

Orin Swift's Rock wine tasting experience in St. Helena

In the same vein, every tasting at Orin Swift is unlike any other Napa Valley wine tasting.

As soon as you enter the art-filled space, you’re struck at the tension between historic charm and the raw materiality of concrete, wood and steel. Formerly a bank, the newly reimagined Orin Swift tasting room honors the past and embraces the future, the perfect place to go beyond the label. No formalities or pretensions here, just great wine and an even better story.In four curated experiences, Rock, Paper, Scissors, and the Vault each dive deep into the Orin Swift catalogue. Rock is an introduction to our house style, conducted on a bar made out of a 100 year old Monterey Cypress, complete with menu holders made from rocks from the very fields where grapes are grown. Then there’s Paper, our 90 minute session where the stories behind our artistic labels unfurl in unique and unexpected ways. Finally, there’s Scissors, our reservation-only tasting where ambition and creativity collide in our most exclusive and singular bottles – some available nowhere else, the natural choice for our biggest fans and most distinguished guests.

For rare occasions, we invite you into The Vault to explore our extensive back catalogue of aged magnums and exclusive library releases. Only the best, only from Friday to Sunday. Make it a habit and join our membership club, Milk Run – the best way to get your hands on your favourite Orin Swift wines, delivered right to your door.

There’s also the Napa Valley Wine Train, a one-of-a-kind journey dating back to 1864 when the Napa Valley Railroad first began operations. Visit local famed Napa wineries while enjoying a gourmet meal with local wine pairings in an antique 1015 Pullman car. Truly, there’s nothing like it.

And to dine? There’s no shortage of fine dining but for a quick bite, the local burger spot will always hit the spot. This all-American classic has been serving up California twists for over 25 years, both family and budget-friendly.

Heard enough? Pull the trigger and book your Napa visit now.
