3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English and 2 more

It is important to note that I am very selective about my choice of wines. With over 500 wineries in the valley, many small, fine wine oriented producers are overlooked by large scale industrial operations. We will taste some of Napa’s most heralded wineries (likely ones you’ve never heard of), as well as international wines. I like to champion true artisans and support small businesses!

What to expect

Ever visit a tasting room and feel overwhelmed by wine terminology and tasting etiquette? Allow me to walk you through professional tasting methodology, wine production, organic vs biodynamic viticulture, and food pairing fundamentals. By the end of the last glass you should be able to have a good grasp of proper tasting etiquette and be able to have a full fledged conversation with a sommelier! During our time together we will visit two tasting rooms or restaurants and enjoy a full flight of wine at each. In order to save you the significant fee percentage charged by this website, one of the tasting room fees is the responsibility of the guests. Snacks are included!

Tours are limited to six guests to allow for a more intimate and personalized experience. If you don't see the day or time that fits your schedule, feel free to message me so we can find something that works for you! Minimum of two participants needed.
