Hall Winery & Residence

Location: Rutherford, CA

Project Architect(s): More Associates

HALL Rutherford is Craig and Kathryn Hall’s stunning winery amid the legendary Sacrashe vineyard. State-of-the-art vision, timeless artisanship and gracious hospitality are showcased in every luxurious detail.

Completed in March of 2005, this high-tech facility has been carefully designed for the production of small-lot red wine.  Custom made three-to-six-ton fermenters afford our winemakers great flexibility and precision handling of vineyard blocks and the ability to micro-manage every aspect of the winemaking process.

The winery’s 14,000 square feet of caves were designed and built by hand by Friedrich Gruber of Gutenstein Austria. The caves are finished with handmade Austrian brick recovered from sites in and around Vienna and showcases select works from the Halls’ art collection. Deep inside the caves resides a dazzling reception area for private tastings and entertaining. The room’s spectacular chandelier, designed by Donald Lipski and Jonquil LeMaster, is dressed in hundreds of Swarovski crystals.
