    Forward Kidd

    St. Helena

    Winery in St. Helena, United States

    Why go

    Forward Kidd is worth considering if the goal is Napa proprietary red-blend depth rather than a big estate-hospitality day. Its strongest signal is the Merryvale Family of Wines connection and a documented Bordeaux-leaning blend style; it is a narrower fit for visitors who want scenery, food pairings, or a broad tasting-room experience.
