That one is too touristy....
Frogs leap, Elyse (small, but our favorite), prager port are all nice. St helena is a great little town.
Take a day and go to Sonoma as well. Less touristy, more natural experience. Healdsburg is awesome area with tons of awesome wineries and scenery. Dutcher crossing, seghasio...
That area is my favorite. You only see a few other tourist at a time, vs the multiple dozen you will see at the big ones in Napa.

Frog's Leap was a lot of fun
The girl conducting the tour gave a hilarious account of the founding of the winery and the origin of the "open other end" warning on the bottle. Then we shot free throws.
My second trip centered around a wedding at Bond. It was probably the most beautiful of the wineries I've seen. Camus was nice. I really liked the one with the pyramid but I can't remember the name.

Repris is a winery on Moon Mountain and is an absolutely beautiful property. The tour was excellent as they took you on rvs through their terraced vineyards. Their wines were excellent and more of an old world style. As they don't sell to restaurants or distributors no problems with having purchases shipped directly to you.
I second this. Last time I was there during harvest season, one of my customers knew the owners well and they took really good care of us. I believe you need to make an appointment to get in, so plan ahead.
If they take you to the top of the hill, you can see the golden gate and it's very cool to sit there drinking wine and picking grapes off the vine with that kind of view.

I think Artisan (sp?) is the pyramid. 360 degree awesome view.
Repris is awesome, but u need an appointment.
