Kathryn and Craig Hall established HALL St. Helena in 2003, transforming the historic Bergfeld Winery into California’s first LEED® Gold Certified winery, blending winemaking excellence with contemporary design. Alongside HALL wines, they also encompass WALT and BACA, reflecting their commitment to quality and innovation.
WALT Wines honors Kathryn's parents, Bob and Dolores Walt, dedicated winegrowers who nurtured the land and instilled a family passion for viticulture. Under Kathryn's management from 1982 to 1992, WALT Wines has become known for its exceptional winemaking team, state-of-the-art facility, and strong relationships with extraordinary vineyard partners, embodying the values of hard work and love for the earth.
BACA, meaning "berry" in Latin, was created with a mission to craft nuanced and honest luxury Zinfandels. Sourcing from renowned regions like Calistoga, Russian River, and Howell Mountain, BACA transforms fruit from old vines into complex wines that capture the essence of their origins, appealing to adventurous wine lovers.
Together, HALL, WALT, and BACA showcase the diverse character of Napa Valley and beyond, inviting enthusiasts to explore their rich offerings and the passion behind each bottle.
