Sullivan Rutherford Estate is a small, family-led winery and vineyard operation in Rutherford, Napa Valley. The 26-acre property combines vineyards and gardens, with the family residence and winery at its core and open to visitors by advance appointment. The estate has long focused on Cabernet Sauvignon, reflecting Rutherford's standing as a premier Napa Valley appellation. Founded in 1972 by James O’Neil Sullivan, the estate came under new family ownership in 2018, accompanied by renewed investment in its vineyards and guest hospitality and an initiative to construct a new winery slated to begin in 2021. Under current leadership led by Juan Pablo Torres-Padilla, the estate aims to build on its vineyard legacy and offer a selective, intimate wine-focused experience. In 2024, Aero announced a partnership that includes Sullivan Rutherford Estate to provide vineyard tours and tastings as part of its network.
