First time in Calistoga and Tamber Bey couldn't have set the bar any higher. Nothing but welcoming staff and horses! Surrounded by the beautiful mountains of North Napa, as well as many friendly retired and working horses, all while tasting some of the best wines Napa has to offer. The grounds are stunning and nearby many great restaraunts and hot springs. We became members and can't wait to return! read more

5/4/24 Tamber Bey Vineyards is a beautiful winery with open space where you can see the mountains and they have horses in the stable. It's a lovely with all the open space. Our wine connoisseur was super friendly and took his time to explain the different wines were were tasting. We also got a charcuterie board to share. Overall it was a very pleasant experience. They are also dog-friendly so next time I will need to take my Coco here. read more

Came for a tasting with friends who are members, definitely worth visiting! The grounds and the views are absolutely incredible! You do the tasting surrounded by the horses in their stalls. The wines are also really tasty. The woman pouring for us was also amazing! She was able to answer all our questions and gave us a great overall experience. Would definitely come back next time we are in the area! read more

We got to go back to Tamber Bey recently in September because his cousin Anne came to visit. So we entered the winery and Robert Braun was there to welcome us with a splash of their Sauvignon Blanc and it's a good one!! It has the lean style of tropical fruit and stone fruit like apricot, white peach and nectarine. After checking in Robert welcomed us out in the patio area to take any seats that were open! We had a seat and then Robert brought out a Chardonnay to pour for us and I get flavors oak from the 40% new oak and some ml ferm but not much butter in it. More of an apple flavor and toast. Then he brought out a Rose' GSM 50% Syrah 25% Grenache and 25% Mourvèdre and it has flavors of raspberry and strawberry jam and a nice kick of acidity but overall juicy and delicious. A slight sweetness in the finish! And I gave it a 4.1 on a 5.0 scale and now we got into the reds and these are made by Thomas River Brown! He won winemaker of the year and is a well known producer of wine!! So Robert is explaining the wines as we taste and he starts us off with the Pinot Noir which is great love it. And I taste cherry, black cherry and raspberry!! And it finishes with medium high acidity! I gave it a 4.3 a relatively high score. Then he pours. the Merlot which is delicious and has flavors of Blackberry blueberry and black cherry, then some savory herbs oak cocoa earthy cedar tobacco forest floor with a long luxurious finish! Then we get into the Cabs to which he poured us the Now this is a Cabernet Franc of 77% and then 13% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and this is delicious wine!! I'm getting flavors of raspberry and bold blueberry that's rich and filling! Plus flavors of leather pepper coffee earthy and oak. This is a full flavored Cab Franc dominant wine! Rated a 4.3 Then he poured is the Tamber Bey Calistoga Cabernet Nice Cabernet Sauvignon from Tamber Bey 2021 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and I am loving it and and I get flavors of blackberry, rich plum and herbes de Provence! And the medium acidity and medium tannins! Rated 4.4 and then Robert poured us the Oakville estate Cabernet Sauvignon Robert thinks this wine sees about 80% new oak which is great and seems right for Thomas River Brown retail is $175.00 which has flavors of Blackberry sauce, and black cherry, and flavors of plum, cherry, old leather, dark chocolate, cassis, raspberry, cigar box, cedar, tar, and truffle, and menthol or eucalyptus. And Eucalyptus is the best flavor in the wines!! I rated this a 4.6!! Yes it's that good. Then the girls went to check out the horses and they have a great set up at the winery where people can spend time with the horses through a door way!! And it was an exceptional tasting!! Please try it and let me know! read more

Tamber Bay is a true equestrian vibe with exquisite Wine, in Calistoga! Entering the property you'll be transported onto a traditional ranch with more than 20 beautiful horses on the property. When you visit, please be mindful of keeping your speed down to 5mph through the ranch/vineyard, and do not make any sudden moves or loud noises while near the horses. They have a small indoor bar tasting area that can accommodate approximately 15 guests, but the outdoor patio area has ample space for a larger group or for those solo tasters that prefer the fresh air and a neighing stallion/mare in the background. Let's talk wine! I tasted 3 delicious wine: * Sauvignon Blanc * Rosé * Cab Franc So grab your and , then stop in for a visit and tell them a Diva sent you! Cheers read more

Recently was in Napa Valley, and was really excited to try some of their wines. I by no means am a connoisseur, but do enjoy the occasional drink. Tamber Bey was the final stop, and we specifically chose it because we were traveling with our dog and was a dog friendly vineyard. Of note, you should get a reservation prior to deciding to go, which can be done online. You can also opt into a picnic lunch option provided through a local spot, (which we did and was excellent), which is delicious albeit a little pricey Immediately felt like it was going to be a wonderful experience. John greeted us with a glass of white wine prior to even starting the tasting experience. Loved that he talked us through the wine experience and taught us even the basics of wine, what to pair each wine with at home, and gave us a new appreciation for the wines. In terms of the winery, there is a small dog area for dogs to be able to relieve themselves so that was also nice. It was so relaxing to be there as well, and to top it off they also have horses right there (retired and current polo horses) that you can say hello to, if they also want to of course. Overall was a great experience and special thank you to John for being a huge part of that experience read more

Came for a tasting here mostly to see the horses. Was; $50/$75/ tasting. Enjoyed seeing the horses and the view. It was hot this afternoon, so sat out for the first two wines of the tasting, then moved inside: Sauv Blanc, Chardonnay, rose, Pinot noir, Rubicano, and cab sauv. Really enjoyed talking to the horse groomer, Eddie, and our server, Kevin. Briefly met the owner, Barry, and his wife; neither were very friendly. Don't think we'll come back. read more

We have been looking for a new Calistoga winery after the quality of our favorites went down. We were pleased with Tamber Bey! The wine selection was lovely (intentionally tried three different Chardonnays and loved all three for very different reasons!) and the property experience was unique! They are animal friendly (cats in the tasting room and horses in the courtyard!) and a very low pressure tasting experience from Cher! Thank you so much! We will be back! read more

We didn't eat, but the tasting is top notch. Cher is committed to ensuring your service and knowledge exceeds expectations. The ambiance of the courtyard tasting area is relaxed, beautiful and has horse stalls that ensures you have excellent company while tasting a variety of great wines. We didn't try a single wine we didn't like. Would recommend visiting! read more

Tamber Bey Vineyards - Rose - Wineries Near Me - Calistoga, California

I came with a few friends during our Calistoga trip in February and we had a great experience. We got to the winery a little earlier than the reservation but were able to check-in and were seated outside. I forgot the names of most of the wines that we tasted but I really enjoyed the Rabicano and the Sans Chene Chardonnay (enough to buy 2 bottles to take home). Most of the horses were eating in their stalls but 1 or 2 poked their heads out to say hello. There's also a good view of the mountains in the distance if you're on the outdoor patio. I highly recommend coming to Tamber Bey if you're in the Calistoga area and would visit again if I'm in Calistoga in the future. read more

Beautiful location, great wine, and incredible service! Highly recommend stopping by! read more

Tamber Bey Vineyards - Wineries Near Me - Calistoga, California

Horrible experience. When we first walked in no one greeted us. There was not a single group in the tasting room, and The woman behind the bar had her back turned to us until we said hello. She didn't explain the wine, or talked to us at all. We had a reservation and seemed almost annoyed that we were there. The wine was average. The only good thing about this winery were the horses. I would recommend skipping this and go to zoo instead to see horses. read more

A local recommendation for this incredible estate - has kept us coming back as members year after year. The property is stunning with the ranch as the center of the experience. Always add the cookie pairing to your tasting... I promise it is a unique experience the elevates your time, and slows you down to really taste each wine. The service is always a 6/5 for us. The views outside and seating inside make it worth a stop any time of year. read more

If you're on your way to Clearlake, this is right at the bottom before the mountain you take up. You must make a reservation and I'm glad we did! We were able to snag a spot by a cozy heat lamp and loveseat. One of my favorite touches was the "pet relief area". My puppy had a blast playing with the jolly ball on the grass area and getting some energy out. Our host was Cole and he did a great job explaining the history of the winery and each tasting. Also obsessed with their candles we got a couple to go. We will definitely be back! read more

I've been to Tamber Bey a few times, in both the summer and winter months, and am always blown away by the overall ambiance and experience. The tasting room and winery is located on a horse ranch (with several rescues!). The grounds are gorgeous and unique, and the staff cares about sharing the history and culture with guests. I've been given a semi private tour during both of my visits (for free!), and got to feed one of the horses during my visit last summer. Wine is delicious and pairs lovely with the picnic lunch we had catered by our friends at Sam's General Store. Always a very special experience. Thank you to Cole - for the service yesterday, and for hooking up me and my friends with a last minute tasting at the amazing Tedeschi Family Winery afterward. I will be back! read more

Tamber Bey -- such an AWESOME winery with genuinely great people running it. We've had the pleasure of going here for various harvest parties and let me tell you -- what a treat! This is a small privately owned winery with really down to earth owners. The owner and his wife seem to be super friendly down to earth people. All their wines are top notch -- beautifully crafted. If you have the opportunity to attend one of their harvest parties you won't be disappointed. We have been twice and both times are such a treat - from the live music to the food, to the people. And suffice it to say, if you like equine culture, this is the spot! Big thumbs up. read more

Tamber Bey was a very special and unique experience. I have been to many of the big wineries and must say this boutique winery has some of the most beautiful views, chill atmosphere and the best wine as a whole during our trip to Napa! Everything was phenomenal but what really made the day, was Cher our hostess. Cher gave us so much useful knowledge and also made it so much fun! I can't recommend Tamber Bey enough! read more

We had reservations and as soon as we walked in we were greeted with a warm smile and Robert pouring us a 2023 SAUVIGNON BLANC, LAMBENTZ VINEYARD.. He took his time with us and gave great recommendations on wine. The cookie parings is a must to get the full experience. Even though it was 100 degrees we sat outside in the shade and the view was everything, like I was at a resort. I ended becoming a member and will be back soon. My guest from New York absolute enjoyed herself. Thank you guys read more

Tamber Bey provides a nice setting for wine tasting. The outdoor sofa and chairs were very comfortable and we were near the area in which you can view the horses which was nice. Service was fantastic and our wine educator was very knowledgeable. The reason for the 4 stars and not five stars is the cost for tasting and what is required to waive the cost. Mind you, fifty dollars a person is not outrageous for a tasting fee in Napa. Some would argue it is cheap but the requirement to purchase 6 bottles to waive 1 tasting fee is outrageous. When I asked I was told that management does this to push people to their wine club. We bought some wine and provided a nice tip to the staff but I was not happy to learn of the 6 bottle requirement and that did not sit right with me. The wine was good but not worth me purchasing a case to cover the tasting fee. Other winemakers use Tamber Bey for tastings so that might be the way we visit this venue again. Because of the 6 bottle requirement, the most I can award Tamber Bey is 4 stars. read more

Spent two hours today wine tasting at this AMAZING winery. The range of wines is phenomenal, various wine tasting packages, cookie or charcuterie tray available to accompany your tasting as well. If you are a horse lover this place is a MUST and our wine concierge for the day, Cher, has an incredible knowledge of wines, the history of the facility and the area. She was entertaining and so much fun. Loved EVERYTHING about this winery! Cool swag gear for horse lovers in the shop as well as amazing wine. I joined their wine club, several options on which wines and level you want to commit to as well. A 5 experience . Reservations are required! read more

Delicious wines! Horses to pet! Gorgeous estate. It was fun that our host hung out at our table to chat for a while. All the wines on the tasting menu were solid. They've made a fan out of me. read more

Decided to stop by since a friend highly recommended this place, saying it was a kid friendly winery, and would be fun for them because there were horses. Since we came with my brother who has two young kids, we thought it would be the best option. The worker who greeted us kindly explained we could walk around and take pictures at the saddles they had out. Thankfully we waited to order some wine since my brother had not yet arrived. When they came, my brother's young kids wanted to take pictures at the saddle, but the (what is likely to be) owner came out and rudely told us to get the kids off the saddle and 'keep them close to us' since kids were not allowed at the winery. I have never had this problem before at any other winery when I went with kids. He was so unfriendly, we all immediately left and will not be coming back. Do not recommend especially if you want to bring your kids. read more

I really enjoyed the coziness of this place, inside and out. One of my favorite vineyards we visited! I loved sitting outside and being so close to the beautiful horses. The employee who was there when we visited was super friendly ad welcoming. I have to mention the wine...we tried a few different types and they were all awesome and excellent tasting. This place is on the list to revisit on my next trip to California. Yum!!! read more

This was our first trip to Calistoga and it did not disappoint. The ranch was so beautiful and the outdoor set up was perfect! We were so happy that doggos could join us and the horses were an added bonus. Cher was our host the day we visited and she was so amazing! Attentive, knowledgeable, and funny! The perfect combo! We bought the Chardonnay to take home and I wish I would have bought more. Would highly recommend this one if you are in the area, especially traveling with your 4-legged babies. read more

Came here for a tasting this past weekend and we had an awesome experience. The property is beautiful as it's a ranch with horses all over. The wine was great. My personal fav was the rabicano. Lastly the best part was the owner joining our party to shared his stories about endurance horse racing and how he got into the winemaking business. It was a nice personal touch. read more

This winery is beautiful and different than most with the stables. Not much of a vinyard view, but the tasting area is cozy and comfortable. We had a nice breeze. The tasting experience itself was not as personal as our previous ones, but the guide did sit with us after a bit and answer questions. We understood we would have a choice of a $55 or $75 experience ( I assume one included small snacks). We were not asked about this and no snacks/breadsticks or anything was offered. I would still recommend this tour, but make sure and clarify your reservation. read more

Had a super amazing time at this place. We've been to many wineries in Napa and Sonoma, but were looking for something different this time. So glad we found this. The wine tasting was great, but I had the most fun with these gorgeous horses! I would highly recommend the wines too. We ended up buying a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon. Ken was a super host who not only made us feel at home, he also gave a private tour of the horse stables. The horses are super friendly and love having visitors. Great place for kids too! read more

Wine + MINI HORSES?!?! When you get to see Lil Sebastian in the flesh while drinking a nice glass of vino, I think you've found a solid match. They also have regular size horses but watch out, one of them tends to be very friendly. By friendly I mean aggressive with the nibbling of clothes. Top it off with cute barn kittens and you're in an animal lover's paradise. But, I digress. Perhaps you are here for the wine... as I suspect. The tasting was excellent. It consisted of 5 wines- 2 whites, a rose and 2 reds. It was free as we went with members of their wine club- members get free tastings for up to 4 people! The regular price was $50. Staff were very nice, we got a tour of the stables. Wines were great! We took home a bottle of their Rabicano. Overall very chill vibe with the stable atmosphere. read more

I just wanted to take a moment to highlight the incredible customer service we received a few weekends ago from Cher. She was bubbly and personable and all around lovely! She brought together the history of the region and the topography, the history of the winery, and tied in her own life/experiences to paint an engaging story of each glass we were tasting. This was the cherry on top of the delicious wine and the stunning scenery! It was the best tasting experience of my life. Thank you Tamber Bey, we will be back soon! read more

Tamber Bey Vineyards - View from our table with the gorgeous mountains on the horizon! Hummingbirds and butterflies flitted around us. - Wineries Near Me - Calistoga, California

Coolest vineyard and our host Cole was excellent! Maybe best out of the 14 vineyards we visited.

A wine we had already purchased, as part of our club membership, was removed from our order. The bottle price was credited, and another wine substituted, without our consent. We were informed by email and credit card transactions. We have resigned from this wine club after 5 years of membership. There are plenty of wineries around. Nothing so exceptional about the wines produced by Tamber Bey, that can convince us to put up with a winery that does not honor your purchased order. read more

Tamber Bey came highly recommended by a friend, so we had to check it out. Tamber Bey is outside Calistoga, CA, and on the bottom of Mount Saint Helena, so the views are mind-blowing. Tamber Bey is unique in its own way because it's a horse ranch yet a vineyard. As soon as you enter the main lobby, you are greeted by two cute cats and friendly staff. The ambiance was spectacular, as they had many lounge chairs and couches outside by the stables. Each tasting area has its own heat lamp in case the weather is cold, which is handy. There are breadsticks served; however, the food options were limited as you need to request food upon booking your reservation, so that is one thing to keep in mind. The wine was superb, but Tamber Bey is more than just the wine; it's the ambiance that makes it memorable. Cost: B Ambiance: A+ Service: A+ Food: B- Wine: A read more

I was underwhelmed. I had wanted to visit this winery for sometime after running across it on the internet. The idea of interacting with horses while tasting new wines was very appealing to me. However, except for the interaction with Marvelous Marvin which saved the day, there was no horse interaction. There were two horses in the stalls but they were not into interacting. We did visit on a Tuesday, only a few other people there, not much really going on. The wines? I would have been better off wanting to go to just taste the wine and not so much with the experience expectation. read more

My friend and I have a saying "Tamber Bey All Day", and that's what one should do when they come here! Sip their delicious wines all day, while enjoying the calm setting here in Calistoga on Tubbs Lane, it's King of Cabs up here! Enjoy the breathtaking views of Mt. Saint Helena, who wouldn't want to stay all day at Tamber Bey ~ wine not! Have brunch or enjoy a relaxing mud bath nearby, and let's do it all again. It's no longer a hidden gem; we're spreading the word. You know how you want some things to stay a secret, not anymore thanks to Yelp. I was fortunate enough to have met winemaker Barry Waitte at his gorgeous home via Verve, where he poured wines and chatted with us non-winemakers about his philosophy on wines, and how he got started in the business 20 years ago. He absolutely fell in love with wine country, and being from SF, he knew his passion would be to make delightful wines for all to enjoy. I knew I had to visit his immaculate winery and beloved horses. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/verve-napa-valley-napa-3?select=OGcybCdY42IUX5qCpvIxyA https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/verve-napa-valley-napa-3?select=mrx-ncoC7xiUj-pylPHxaQ On black Friday, my friend and I decided to come here instead of shopping. FYI, make an appointment before visiting, appointments only. They were actually booked that day, but the nice lady squeezed us in for 130pm, and Zach graciously showed us around the stunning property and gave us a wonderful tour. Lucky for us, we got to pet the horses and see the most adorable mini horses, and learned the Rombauer family also races and rescues horses - how amazing! Onto the wines, we chose the cookie pairing, which is a one-of-a-kind tasting, highly recommended! We went from left to right on the tasting, from refreshing whites to bold reds. We bought a few bottles for later. Sabino is still my favorite. We also got a splash of the rosé, what a bonus...a glass of rosé keeps the doctor away. My friend ended up buying a bottle of rosé, preparing for those Summer days. Once again, what better way to spend a glorious day frolicking in wine country. Equestrian + cookies + wines + Calistoga = Tamber Bey All Day! 'Til next time ~ cheers & see you on Yelp!!! read more
