‘HUDSON GROWN’ with Lee and Cristina Hudson

Experience a unique afternoon for 10 guests at Hudson Ranch with Lee and Cristina Hudson.

Begin with a private art tour of their home, followed by a seasonal lunch featuring the finest ingredients from their gardens and pastures, accompanied by Hudson wines.

Situated in the heart of Napa Valley’s Carneros District, Hudson Ranch produces grapes of distinction from uniquely situated sites on their property for some of the most recognized wines in the region, including Arietta and Kongsgaard.

​

John Kongsgaard has harvested every vintage of Hudson grapes since the founding of the ranch 40 years ago. Widely regarded as one of the greatest Napa Valley winemakers, his Syrah and Chardonnay are among the most collectible wines in the region.

​

The Arietta wine brand was born at Hudson in 1996, and owners Fritz and Caren Hatton have continuously produced wine from grapes grown at Hudson Ranch ever since. Arietta H Block is one of the best-known and most collected Cabernet Franc–dominant wines in California.
