WHO WE ARE

About

Rapp Ranch is a celebrated historic property in the heart of Coombsville, once known worldwide as Napa Valley’s premier quarter horse breeding and training facility through the 1980s and 1990s. After transitioning into a vineyard and winery in 2005, the ranch expanded into ultra-premium Cabernet Sauvignon and other Bordeaux varieties while adding modern hospitality spaces. When the Alkosser family purchased the estate in 2016, they united its rich equestrian legacy with its thriving vineyards and winery to create a one of a kind destination where guests can experience the ranch’s heritage, beauty, and craftsmanship in every visit.
