About This Home

As of August 2026

Auction bidding open! Previously Listed at $19,000,000. Bidding ends June 24th, Current High Bid is $9,000,000. Rarely does a coveted valley floor vineyard and winery of this caliber come to market in Napa Valley. Benessere Vineyards is a complete, 42-plus-acre estate, encompassing a namesake winery, tasting room, and two well-appointed residences across 6,300-plus square feet of combined living space, with sweeping vineyard and valley views. Tucked at the end of a quiet country lane and flanked by the Napa River, the up-valley location is both private and convenient. Approximately 29 acres of planted vines unfold along the organic riverine landscape, creating an agrarian setting of rare completeness. The winery and reimagined outdoor tasting area are sized for an intimate, estate-scale operation, perfectly suited to crafting and sharing wines grown steps from the cellar door. The two residences, shielded by mature landscaping, offer extensive outdoor living spaces that seamlessly connect home and vineyard. Steeped in a storied past, Benessere, Italian for Living the Good Life, was built around Italian varietals and premium winemaking. That legacy and extraordinary setting offer an incoming owner the rare opportunity to live, create, and entertain at the very heart of Napa Valley.
