Chateau Montelena Tasting Room The Westin St. Francis is proud to partner with premier winery Chateau Montelena, located just off the Landmark lobby.

Established in 1882 by California entrepreneur Alfred Tubbs, the modern-day Chateau Montelena Winery has been owned and operated by the Barrett family since 1972. In 1976, Chateau Montelena put California at the forefront of the wine world when a who’s-who of the French wine and food establishment rated the 1973 Chateau Montelena Chardonnay above all other wines in a blind tasting. These results proved that Chateau Montelena could produce some of the world’s finest wines, and that California’s wine industry had come of age.

Open daily from 1pm –8pm
