The individuals hosting the tasting were gregarious and happy to talk about their wines and why they loved them. My personal preference was for the Russian river Sauvignon Blanc, but that may have been influenced by how hot the day was (105 and sipping wine on the outdoor patio). The Oak Knoll Syrah was also nice, but too much for a hot day. I'm curious to visit their Livermore location after this event!

We had a very knowledgeable sommelier pouring us wine and they are not afraid to give you a fair tasting portion size. I can say that they do have some delicious wine! Besides the tasting room, there is an area outside of the tasting room where you can have a table for your group. We sat between the tasting room and the small kitchen next-door to them and enjoyed some food while we had our wine. They all seem to work together well.

We chose the reserve red tasting , all the wines had unique flavors but my top two wines for this tasting were the Pinot Noir and the Merlot very light and dry wines something you don't taste too often.

We spent two days in Napa visiting 7 wineries and this one was by far everyone's favorite (we were…read morea group of 4). The small intimate setting, beautiful views, amazing wines at reasonable prices, and great cheese pairings made this place a stop to remember. I ended up buying a case and joining the wine club. They also waived our tasting fees with our bottle purchases (I think it's one tasting waived per two bottles but double check me on that). They also gave me a free (and quite sturdy and good quality) branded wine key, perhaps for joining the club. I also appreciated they gave us water bottles and allowed two of our guests (who were driving) to join us but not have to pay for the tasting. I wish more wineries allowed that to allow for safe and responsible tastings. Highly recommend and will definitely be back again! This by far will have to be a stop for us every time we come to Napa. Thank you Taylor Family Vineyards for a wonderful time!

Taylor Family Vineyards was our first vineyard to visit on our Napa trip. We went to 3 vineyards…read morefor 3 days, and Taylor was by far our favorite. The setting was SO intimate (we were the only ones there), the view was beautiful, and we were treated like family in someone's home. The owner even came out to greet us. It was so sweet. Their story was amazing, the wine pairings were great, and we loved every single wine we tried. This was the only winery we visited where every person in our group bought multiple bottles, a case or a membership to their wine club. All of us still get the email updates from the vineyard, and look forward to their spring release wines (specifically the Sauvignon Blanc & Rosé)! When I tell you every wine of theirs we tasted was amazing, I mean every single one! I've even received hand written cards every Christmas since we visited from the family. They truly made our experience so special. Their wine, their vineyard, their hospitality and the attention to detail made Taylor Family Vineyards our favorite winery to date. I can't wait to visit again!

This was my first time in Napa since I turned 21 last year, and starting off at this winery was…read moreprobably the best decision. My family and I came on a Saturday afternoon per the recommendation of the owners, who we met at a Tesla event. We didn't go to the vineyard itself, but the tasting room that they have in downtown Napa right along the river . We were greeted kindly and decided to settle on three tastings. My mind was blown by actually liking Rosè, a drink I usually am not a fan of! We started off with two white wines, followed by three various red blends, one of which we took a bottle home. They also have a neat membership program that is essentially of no cost per year as long as you buy a bottle a year (I believe there's some price minimum depending on the bottle). This also includes free tasting all year round for up to 6 people at a time. The wines were explained to us in great detail, and the guy explaining it to us (I wish I remembered his name, but he was great) entertained all our various questions as we are wine novices. Highly highly recommend !

Metal Art In The Blackbird Vineyards Field Exhibition Area…read more SITREP I stopped by recently in the City of Napa to take in the very cool metal artwork in the Blackbird Vineyards Field Exhibition right off Oak Knoll Avenue. [Note: whereas the Storefront sales office is located in Yountville, this part of the vineyard borders on the City of Napa, hence the apparent discrepancy with this location address.] THE SETUP The large metal art includes: (1) a giant key, (2) a just-as-giant keyhole, (3) a giant segment of chain-link, and, (4) a giant metal gear! As I was explaining my docent, I found the choice of items - and the metal - to make this a very creative exhibition in the Spirit of Steampunking! METAL ART-SCULPTURE EXPRESSION! This is just some very fun artwork and a very creative use of vineyard space where as explained to me that the soil is just too fallow and workable and perhaps a bit too close to the roadaway. THE LOWDOWN A stop to view some pretty amazing metal art-sculptures.
