Peju Province Winery

Established in 1983, Peju Province Winery is dedicated to producing balanced, expressive, and elegant wines from organic and sustainably farmed vineyards in the Napa Valley. Located on an idyllic estate in the renowned Rutherford appellation, the winery is home to lush gardens, distinctive architecture, and a tasting room offering world-class hospitality and culinary experiences. Still family owned and operated, our business has transformed over the past 32 years from a simple grape growing venture into a landmark winery. With additional vineyards in Calistoga and Pope Valley, we craft single varietal and blended wines that showcase the essential taste of the vineyard.
