Raymond Vineyards in St. Helena
Enjoy a multi-sensory experience with walking tours, wine blending and other playful activities.
Located in the heart of Napa Valley’s renowned wine region is the bustling epicenter of Raymond Vineyards. The beloved property was founded in 1970 by the Raymond family, who settled in Napa during the thirties. In 1970, the family established a 90-acre estate in Rutherford, and expanded it to 300 acres. It took five generations of the Raymond family to create this Napa icon.
However, the creative vision of French proprietor Jean-Charles Boisset has elevated the property to one of Napa’s finest.

Adding to its charm are the lively, multi-sensory activities offered on the property. From walking through the biodynamic gardens to wine blending, Raymond Vineyards inspires guests’ passion for fine wine in an environment of exploration, imagination, and elegant creativity.
Below are many ever-evolving experiences, from the unparalleled Crystal Cellar to the opulent velvet Red Room and the beautiful oasis in the Grove.
