I booked a wine tasting for my girlfriend and me back in the summer 2019. We both felt very welcome despite being rather young (22 & 24) and not knowing much about wine. Nick was our host and guide and he made this day an unforgettable experience. Since we both didn't know that much about wine, he explained everything very well and was really nice & friendly. He was very funny too! And of course the wine offered was great and matched perfectly to the delicious appetizers. It was an amazing experience! Since then I had a few tastings but none of them were as good as this one. Looking forward to traveling to the US & Napa Valley again and enjoying another great tasting, hopefully with Nick!

My wife and I decided to celebrate our 45th anniversary with a trip to the Napa Valley. The last winery we visited was by far our very best visit ever, even after many years of travels to the Napa area. We had setup our individual wine tasting as a filler for our last day of the stay, not realizing what a great decision it was to go to Far Niente. Cynthia our greeter and Reed Gomes our host were both exceptional. These are two people who fully understand what hospitality means and they do it very well indeed. We not only felt very welcome but we felt as though we were visiting with close friends. We both greatly appreciated our experience provided by Reed and Cynthia, the virtual tour of the beautiful grounds, the personalized wine tasting and their attention to the fine details that matter made this a visit that we will cherish, and we will certainly return as a result.

We were in Napa for a milestone birthday, and the birthday girl made the arrangements. I was super excited Nickel & Nickel was on our itinerary because a Sommelier friend in Denver had told me about this special occasion wine... And I love a great Cab! Drew was a fantastic host - very knowledgeable! And interesting and fun. The grounds are gorgeous! As we walked outside, I recognized Opus One in the background (a very interesting tour we did years ago). We just loved the custom tasting menus they made for our birthday girl! The flight of single vineyard Cabs was amazing! We all had a tough time choosing a favorite, so we each went home with a mixed case. Can’t wait for our delivery and share the stories when we share the wine!
5. Opus One Winery

Cultivated with passion and a singular vision, Opus One produces one ultra-premium Bordeaux blend a year. A collaboration between Robert Mondavi and Baron Philippe de Rothschild, Opus One arose out of passion. And beginning with the first harvest in 1979, every vintage of Opus One has expressed the vision and passionate spirit of its founders. Our goal is to create a wine of ultimate quality that reflects the traditions and innovations of both founders. Visiting the winery is by appointment only.

Opus One is a collaboration between two legends of the wine world -- Robert Mondavi of Napa Valley and Baron Phillipe de Rothschild of Bordeaux's Chateau Mouton-Rothschild. The coming together of these two visionaries has resulted in one of the most iconic wineries in the world. Located just behind Napa's famous Oakville Grocery, Opus One rises from the earth in a manner that calls to mind Space Odyssey 2001. Driving in on the lane to the front entrance makes you feel that you are arriving somewhere very special. Opus One wines (there are only two -- Opus One and Overture) do honor to the winery's architecture -- beautifully balanced and memorable. Production is limited to 25,000 cases per year, which explains the wine's lofty price. Tours are by appointment only, as follows (with website description): 1) Estate Tour & Tasting -- 90 minutes/$85 per person The Estate Tour & Tasting offers insight into Opus One’s history, aesthetics, vineyards and winemaking. This hosted visit includes a tour of the winery and culminates in the Grand Chai, where guests may taste the current vintage of Opus One. Space is limited. 2) Library Tour & Tasting -- 120 minutes/$140 per person The Library Tour & Tasting offers a more intimate exploration of Opus One. Guests will be escorted through an immersive tour of the winery, beginning in the Salon and concluding in the Private Library with a formal seated tasting of two vintages of Opus One. Space is limited. The barrel room (Chai) -- 1,000 barrels (at a cost of $1,300 each) -- is a thing of beauty, with grape-red center-stained oak barrels stretching in an arc around 1/2 of the underground cellar. Bring your camera! I must give a special "Thank You" to our host guide -- Nancy -- whose informative presentation and personal touch made us feel so welcome. Thank you, Nancy!! Bottom line, Opus One is truly a memorable visit. Count yourself lucky to enjoy it! Highly Recommended!
