Domaine Carneros was a stunning French inspired Chateau. It gave me Count of Monte Cristo vibes. They are known for their sparkling wines. What I liked about this winery was the option to pick which tasting you wanted to do when you got there. You did have to reserve your spot in advance, but did not have to pick specific wines. We had patio seating, which was lovely on such a gorgeous day in Napa. I tried the flight of 4 sparkling wines. Cory, our host, was great and even took a picture for us. This winery also has beautiful views of the rolling hills of Napa, which is something I really wanted to see.
This was my first time visiting Napa and this winery definitely took the cake for my favorite winery all day. The sparkling options for flights were delicious. We really enjoyed our server he even gave us a poor of one of their best sellers off of the flight menu. We tried to make reservations however they were fully booked but when we walked up to the counter they still allowed us to be seated immediately. Beautiful views. I will be back.
Experience: 10Value: 10Quality: 10Amenities: 10Architecture: 10Uniqueness: 10Experience:I am slightly biased here, to start, I am a member at Domaine Carneros and proposed to my fiancé here.With that said, every visit here has been special and memorable. From the staircase getting up to the Château to the wine tasting area, it is a remarkable experience.Dressing up and going wine tasting here is always a fun way to spend any day of the week.ValueI have been a member since my first visit to Domaine Carneros and that isn't by accident. Both the Champagnes and the Red Wine collections are outstanding and have me coming back for more. Each year the varietals are expertly selected and crafted into a quality wine at an exceptional price.QualityI have tasted all over the world and have to admit its hard to beat the Champagne (Sparkling Wine) that is produced at Domaine. From buttery and smooth to crisp apple, the variety of options are perfectly balanced for any palate.AmenitiesThis is a complete, Four Seasons establishment. It doesn't matter if you go in the heat of summer or the cold of winter, there is always that perfect spot that you will find yourself.The Glass room is a wonderful area that works exquisitely when it is cold or rainy (Particularly during winter when it is decorated for Christmas).The outside veranda is a beautiful place to sit while sipping Champagne and taking in the views of the Napa Valley.ArchitectureStunning!From the Famous Gate at the entry to the Chateau itself, one would be hard pressed to find a more scenic wine tasting location in the United States. The Chateau makes you feel as if you are wine tasting in Southern France with sweeping vistas.UniquenessCompletely unique to the other wineries in the area. It doesn't matter if it is your first or hundredth time to Domaine, standing at the bottom of the steps and looking up leaves you stunned.
This place is beautiful with plenty of scenery for photo and relax while sipping their variety of wine selections. They specialize in sparking wines and Pinot noir. I was abit disappointed that they don’t have Cabernet Sauvignon, which is what I was looking for. However, our group had great time.
On a work trip I realized I had enough time to drive up to Napa for a couple hours and was able to snag a last minute reservation here. It’s pretty in pictures but you almost gasp when you see it in person. I did a $40 champagne tasting and a $25 cheese plate and after tax and tip it was a pricey little afternoon out for me but I didn’t care at all. It was so lovely and relaxing and delicious and the service was outstanding. I know there are so many wineries in the region but I think if I’m ever back I’d have to come back to this place!
I’m not a huge fan of sparkling wine, especially when it comes to sweet wines. But when you’re surrounded by the beauty of this French-styled winery - it elevates your experience.Owned by the tattinger family from France
We had a great experience. It looks like a castle and has beautiful views of the surrounding area. Reservations are a must. Outdoor sitting was the best even when the weather was windy. The sparkling wines are the specialty and all tastes great. Customer service was good as well.
5 stars all around! Jake was the perfect experience maker for us. The tasting was wonderful and whole place is a dream. Thank you so much for hosting us and giving me and my friends a truly spectacular memory.
Me and my wife came to Napa to celebrate my 50th birthday! This lavishly beautiful estate was our first stop!!! It was an elegant affair as soon as we ascending the stairs!!! We were so pleasantly guided by the passion and wisdom of John!! We absolutely fell in love with the Rosé and Demi Sec!!! This experience definitely appealed to our souls as well as our palates!! We will definitely return!!! Thank you all for making my 50th birthday truly unforgettable!!
If you love champagne (or any bubbly drink) and looking for a place with fantastic view in Napa Valley, then this is the place to go! I went here for a bachelorette celebration, where we had a flight of champagne paired with mini dishes for each glass, which all tasted amazing. It was my first time trying beets and the dish did not disappoint :)Overall, great experience and would definitely come back here again!
