About
Founded in 1976 by visionary vineyard developer William Hill, the estate is located on an exceptionally unique 200-acre parcel at the foot of Atlas Peak on the Silverado Bench. With nearly 40 years of experience growing wine here, the team has used their expertise, knowledge, and instinct to deliver extraordinary fruit showcasing the site's distinctive characteristics. Each variety, each wine, and each tier has been skillfully crafted to meet their high standards. This disciplined approach to producing excellent wine is apparent in every glass of William Hill.
The Vineyards
William Hill Estate rests on the gently rolling hills of the Silverado Bench at the foot of the ancient Vaca Mountains, rising from the Valley floor in Southern Napa.
Unlike the rich, sandy loam soils that dominate the Valley floor, benchland soils tend to be rocky, thin, and nutrient-deprived. Similar to mountain fruit, vines here struggle to find water deep within the soil, resulting in small berries with intense color and flavor. This translates to exceptionally balanced wines with vivid fruit characteristics and refined acidity.
