St. Supery Estate Vineyards & Winery

What St. Supery Estate Vineyards & Winery does

St. Supéry Estate Vineyards & Winery is a privately held, estate-focused winery founded in 1989 and headquartered at 8440 St. Helena Highway in Rutherford, Napa Valley, California, with a workforce of 51-100 employees. The company produces 100% estate-grown wines from its Rutherford and Dollarhide estate vineyards, specializing in Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, and red Bordeaux varietals (Merlot, Malbec, Petit Verdot, Semillon), with additional offerings including the Élu Bordeaux blend, RU3 multi-vintage blend, Virtú white blend, rosé, library wines, large formats, and winery-exclusive releases.

The business operates a multi-channel revenue model combining direct-to-consumer e-commerce (bottles priced $28-$1,000), a recurring Wine Club membership with up to 20% member discounts and library access, paid winery tasting experiences at the Rutherford location (open daily 10am-5pm), private events including the $10,000-per-table "Dining For A Cause" dinner, and a wholesale trade-distribution arm for restaurants and retailers. The company also monetizes non-wine offerings such as Keith Blodgett photography prints ($600-$750) with 100% of proceeds donated to Every Mother Counts. Distribution is domestic-only via e-commerce shipping to approximately 21 US states and through the on-site tasting room; international shipping is not offered.

Operationally, the company differentiates on a French château tradition combined with Napa Valley terroir and a comprehensive sustainability program: all estate land (including the culinary garden) is Napa Green certified, and the winery achieved 2025 Gold Membership in the International Wineries for Climate Action following a carbon assessment. The portfolio has received consistent 90+ point ratings from major critics (James Suckling, Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Enthusiast, Decanter, Vinous, The Tasting Panel, Wine Spectator). In April 2026, the company acquired Rudd winery for an undisclosed amount, expanding its Napa Valley estate footprint.
