Long Meadow Ranch - Rutherford Estate, St. Helena

We tried the restaurant only. It was kid friendly and family friendly. It was wide and not too loud and lots of kids were playing with crayons and coloring papers while waiting for food. It was fun to visit general store while waiting for the table too. Food was very good - we had caramelized beet salad, chicken wing and devil eggs for starters. My favorite was the beet salad. The chicken wing had just the right amount of kick to it. (I think children could still eat them) Devil eggs were a bit salty for me. For the main, we had cheese burgers and ribs. Both were very good too! I would come back and try other dishes!

As the Napa Valley chauffeur , I am constantly on the lookout for others in our industry with passion and humility and a sense of how lucky we are to work in such a beautiful and highly desirable area !!! Today , Samantha , Ryan & Holly stole the show for me !!! Speaking with Samantha this morning she made me aware of options for my clients on an incredibly busy day to best accomodate their experience and time frame . Ryan , then proceeded to provide an exceptional food & wine pairing that my clients raved about !!! This was the final day of four with them and it came off seamlessly !!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS VENUE AND STAFF ! Tell them , your chauffeur , strongly , recommends Long Meadow Ranch !!! CHEERS !!!

We did the Winery and Cave experience which was well worth it. The tour starts in the tasting room by the Farmstead, and you are driven up to the hillside location of the winery. The view is fantastic, the building is very interesting and "green". There is art strewn throughout the modern facility. You get an introduction into wine making and tour the actual facility. The caves are carved into the mountainside. You see the olive press from above. During the tour you taste various wines. Upon return to the tasting room, you are given a private room tasting of olive oils. Very informative and beautiful tour.

We had the best tour 12/27/17. Our guide, Julian, was fantastic! He was friendly and informative. He even showed me a few tricks to unlock the nuances in the wines. Their wines are impeccable. Their olive oil is delicious and the farm to table concept is legendary. The way that they use and reuse every resource was inspiring. One of the things I found so impressive was the exterior walls of the caves being made of from the excavated dirt. Pure genius! Julian walked us through the process from vine to bottle, touched on food pairings and showed us how to appreciate the wines. Thanks to this tou,r my wife, who’s not been open to wine in the past, now has a greater appreciation and hasn’t stopped talking about her new love for wine. After the tour we enjoyed lunch. The farm to table concept brings a freshness to the food that is unmatched. Thanks so much for such a great visit. I highly recommend this place.

We took the tour up to their ranch. Definitely one not to miss. Our tour guide Julian was great. He made the tour outstanding. Out of all the tours and visits Longmeadow was our favorite due to Julian. I highly recommend. We had the privilege to taste 9 wines and their olive oil. Can’t wait for our wine to arrive back in Wyoming. Thank you for an unforgettable experience.
