We have been going to Nichelini for more than 30 years and have watched the winery go through generational and wine maker changes. The family has worked very hard to maintain the heritage and quality of the winery. The wine is excellent plus and the winery is very cozy and welcoming. Taking a picnic lunch is a favorite of my wife and I and our out of state family visitors.

Nichelini wines have become a staple of my family's holiday dinners over the past few years. The wines are all fantastic and finishing the meal with a bottle of Nichelini's Porchlight is a true family favorite! If you're ever in the area, a visit to Nichelini is a must. You'll be immersed in tradition and history while enjoying some of the best wines in Napa County.

Nichelini is my favorite place to bring friends and family visiting from out of town. The wine is beyond delicious, and the grounds are beautiful, fun, and relaxing. I love the history and authenticity of this place, and the family members that run the winery are incredibly personable and knowledgeable. Every time I visit, I learn something new!

About Winery and Wines

Nichelini Family Winery is proud to be one of the pioneers of Napa Valley’s modern wine industry. In 1884, travelling on horseback, homesteaders Anton and Caterina Nichelini became the first Swiss settlers in Napa County’s Chiles Valley. They quickly set about planting vines and olive trees, and by 1895 had constructed a hand-hewn stone winery with a seven-bedroom house above it. This would provide a home for the Nichelinis and their eventual 12 children. The winery, original Roman wine press and house still stand today and have remained in our family’s hands for more than 120 years, making us the oldest family owned winery in Napa County. Our motto is “Generation to Generation”, and to date five generations of Nichelinis have passed on their winemaking knowledge as well as their traditions of hard work and careful craftsmanship. We strive to produce truly world-class, American wines that exhibit finesse, simplicity, and individuality.
