About the Winery
Gaderian began with the 2017 vintage, when winemaker Shaina Harding, a UC Davis graduate who has made wine in Napa Valley since 2008, asked her longtime friend Natalie Coughlin Hall to start a label with her. Coughlin Hall, who grew up just outside Napa Valley, won 12 Olympic medals for USA Swimming and has been learning winemaking alongside Harding.
The name comes from an Old English verb meaning to gather. The signature wine is Chenin Blanc from Henry Ranch, a vineyard in the eastern hills of Napa Valley planted more than 50 years ago. Harding also makes Orchard Avenue Merlot, Sunset Knoll Pinot Noir from Carneros, Bynoe Vineyard Cabernet from the St. Helena AVA, rosé and sparkling wines, about 750 cases in all.
The wine is made in another winery's cave, and Gaderian has no tasting room. It is sold through the website and wine club, and the San Francisco Chronicle reported the Chenin Blanc poured by the glass at Bouchon Bistro in Yountville. The day below takes you to three sought-after estates nearby that do welcome guests.

A Suggested Six-Hour Day
Pickup at 10:00 a.m. from a nearby hotel such as Andaz Napa or Archer Hotel Napa.
10:00 · Pickup at Andaz Napa or Archer Hotel Napa
Since Gaderian does not host visitors, this day takes you to three sought-after estates nearby that do. Andaz Napa, a boutique Hyatt hotel, and Archer Hotel Napa, a boutique hotel with a rooftop bar, are both in downtown Napa, about 12 minutes from the first stop in the Oak Knoll District. The day runs about six and a half hours, and extra time can be added by the hour.
10:15 · O'Brien Estate
About 12 minutes away. A family estate in the Oak Knoll District where every wine is grown, made and bottled on the same 40 acres; a family member walks you through the cellar and vineyard before five estate wines at your own table. The Tasting Experience at the Estate is $85, private, about 90 minutes. Reservations required and prepaid.
12:05 · Nicholson Jones
About 20 minutes away. Julien Fayard's small label, poured in a private tasting at the Covert Estate winery, which is built underground between the vineyard and an oak grove in the Coombsville hills. The private experience is $75 for about an hour. By appointment, requested online one to two weeks ahead.
1:20 · Lunch at Zuzu
About 12 minutes away. Tapas and paella at Zuzu on Main Street in downtown Napa, open daily from noon. Prefer a picnic? We can arrange a catered picnic at a winery that allows one; the cost is quoted when you book.
2:50 · Kenzo Estate
About 20 minutes away. A 3,800-acre mountain preserve in Napa's southeast corner. The Estate Tour & Tasting walks the vineyards, tank room and cave before a seated flight ($110, 1 hour 15 minutes). By appointment, seven days a week; the reservation must be made before you reach the gate on Monticello Road.
4:05 · Back to your hotel
Back by about 4:25 p.m., about six and a half hours after pickup.
About $270 per person in tasting fees for the three wineries, paid directly to each winery.
O'Brien opens daily from May through October and Wednesday to Sunday from November through April, so in winter this day works Wednesday to Sunday. Back by about 4:25 p.m.
Every tour is custom. This day is a starting point: your chauffeur will shape it around what matters to you, and we plan multi-day tours for guests who want to see more of wine country.
