DAWN HEUMANN THE GUIDE I WINE 101 NAPA The Hess Collection was founded in 1978 on the site of one of Napa Valley's oldest wineries. It has since has become a world-class brand and destination, earning international recognition for its wine, culinary and visitor programs, and superlative collection of contemporary art. The Hess Collection was established by founder Donald Hess, who had a vision to cultivate vines at elevation when few in Napa Valley were doing so. The volcanic slopes of Mount Veeder yield elegant wines with rich, complex flavors. Today, Tim and Sabrina Persson, the next generation of Hess family, continue the legacy of sharing wine and art and a commitment to making both accessible to all. Visit the winery to taste these exceptional wines and enjoy several unforgettable experiences. Whether adventuring through the Hess vineyards on an ATV ride or indulging in an expertly crafted wine and food pairing by Hess's executive chef, experiences can be tailored exclusively for you.
