BEAULIEU VINEYARD OPENS RESERVATIONS FOR NEW HOSPITALITY CENTER

Bookings begin April 20 for tasting experiences in restored stone winery, ahead of July opening.

RUTHERFORD, Calif., April 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Beaulieu Vineyard today will begin accepting reservations for tours and tastings in its new Hospitality Center, allowing guests to plan experiences ahead of the center's grand opening in July. The reservation launch marks the first public step toward opening the historic core of the BV estate to guests, introducing a new chapter in how visitors engage with one of Napa Valley's most foundational wineries.

Throughout the renovation period, Beaulieu Vineyard has continued to welcome guests at its Reserve Tasting Room on the south end of the winery, where tastings will remain available through June 29. Beginning July 13, guest experiences will transition into the restored building, returning guests to the architectural heart of one of Napa Valley's most foundational estates and, for the first time at Beaulieu Vineyard, integrating a dedicated culinary program designed to complement the wines and storytelling of the property.

Constructed in the 1880s, the two-story structure long served as the center of BV's winemaking operations. The multi-year restoration, scheduled for completion in early July, is focused on preserving original materials and architectural character while preparing the space to host guided tastings, education-driven experiences, and culinary pairings developed with intention.

"Opening reservations is a meaningful milestone for us," said Luke Magnini, Director of Hospitality, Beaulieu Vineyard. "For the first time, guests will experience BV's hospitality fully within these historic spaces, with food thoughtfully integrated as part of how we tell our story. We designed every detail, from the flow of the visit to the role of the culinary program, to feel welcoming, considered, and true to who we are." 

The new Hospitality Center introduces a curated range of tasting experiences designed to reflect the depth and breadth of Beaulieu Vineyard. The offerings are structured to welcome first-time visitors, re-engage longtime followers, and provide club members with deeper access—each guided by professionalism, thoughtful storytelling, and respect for the wines.
