    Beautiful table setup with snacks to go with tasting
    Julie Z.

    Great new winery that opened up at the end of 2024. Gorgeous property with gold accents everywhere that make the place pop. Had such a good first experience during my Dec 2024 tasting, I had to sign up for their wine club. Everyone there is great but favorites by far are Jill & Win. I always get the curator selection which basically means you get to design your own private Napa wine tasting from their awesome choices. A small arrangement of snacks are also served with your tasting; the olives are amazing. They have some fabulous white blends, most around $50 a bottle but my go to choice is their Melange. Its crisp, fruity, and slightly acidic. Best part is as of April 2025, you also get free tastings at their sister properties Far Niente and Nickel & Nickel.

    1000/10 experience. Such a beautiful location, wine was really good. I love how they gave you some snacks and told you which wine pair with what. The winery staff was really friendly and made our visit so enjoyable. Can't wait to go back!

    My favorite winery in Napa!! I came for a friend's birthday and it was a 10/10 experience from the start. We were greeted at the door with wine and we were seated promptly. I loved how the wine tasting came with snacks (crackers, cheese, olives and nuts) as most places don't do that. We chose 2 red wines and 2 white wines and we loved our host. I'm not a wine connoisseur so I don't remember what we ordered but it seems like you can't go wrong with any. The ambience, staff and experience was 10/10, would love to come here again.

    Attention is top notch. Very fancy but not stuffy. Fantastic wines with incredible attention to detail and care. Loved the experience. A must do. Jeffrey was the best! Ask for him.

    Bella union has become one of my favorite wineries now. This winery is one of the newer wineries part of the Far Niente group. First off the winery itself is gorgeous as you walk in. You can see a beautiful courtyard that looks like a very nice spot to open some bottles and relax with a group. Once you step inside, it is demure yet elegant and classy without being pretentious. Our host of the day was Justin who was very personable without being overbearing. We learned a great deal about wines and the industry as well. We opted with the curated tasting which included a plate of snacks. The tasting started off with a white blend at the door which was very refreshing. My wife enjoyed the tasting of whites and i did the reds. All the wines were very approachable and delicious. I enjoyed them all but the standout for me was the cultivist. Will definitely be back and recommend to others.

    We've been members of Nickel & Nickel for about 6 years now and were excited to know they opened this new tasting room in between our most recent visits, so we made plans to visit here on this trip. What you might know about visiting Far Niente and Nickel & Nickel don't apply here - this tasting room is quite different. It still has that great service and offers amazing wine, but the vibe is completely different! Mostly catered to a slightly younger crowd, but still rather upscale. The décor was amazing, we really liked it! Service we got from the wine educators helping us was great as well. And the snacks they provided were absolutely INCREDIBLE! Highly recommend making plans to not only stop in for a tasting, but buy a bottle and sit & sip and stay a while!

    We love Bella Union wines and decided to make a tasting reservation for this afternoon. It is so cool inside and I love the art deco design. It's so elegant and well designed like Studio 54!! They could have a disco here!! Here we go again with wine tasting and I love the crispness of the Melange white blend Napa Valley.

    11/21/24 with tiraud! Hes awesome
    Brian M.

    What a wonderful experience. Hospitality and the new winery was an absolute delight. Follow it up with spectacular cabernet. Even the white wines were great. Tiraud, Michelle and our other host who used to work mondavi forgot to get her name were wonderful. Bella union is part of nickel nickel and far niente. Heavy rain , so we arrived earlier than expected. Staff made us feel right at home. Started with a 2022 Bianco white blend. Which was delightful. Not usually a white wine person but this was Smooth very well balanced . crisp, refreshing. savingnon blanc and semillon blend. Even The pinot blanc was a surprise. very crisp, drinkable and delicious. Nice flavor profile. And i usually dont like whites. The star was the reds. We ended up taking home a bottle of the 2022 bella union cabernet savingnon and the 2022 liaison red blend napa valley which had some malbec in there. The cab was an absolute delight, great balance and flavors. Black currant, cherry, fruit forward and but super heavy. I would say very approachable for first timers. The liaison cab/malbec blend was big and bold with some cab franc petit verdot. Loved it! Definitely will be back! Cheers

    10/10 Very beautiful establishment, fairly new. Cute ,modern and chic winery. Came here for wine tasting and it was amazing, my server was excellent, he was very attentive and detailed when it came to discussing the different wines we were drinking. He also was very informative about the near by wineries as well. I highly recommend coming here!

    VERY bougie. Wines were tasty. Make sure you reserve some time for this lovely tasting. Very unique in Napa. We enjoyed ourselves immensely and everything from the velvet banquettes to the lighting was curated with a purpose. Our sommelier was super attentive and answered a variety of questions. Lovely experience.

    Beautiful architecture
    Sara B.

    We finally had a chance to visit the new location for Bella Union wines (part of the Far Niente family of wines here in Napa). The architecture was much more modern than their sister properties (nickel & nickel, far niente), but had its own unique charm. We enjoyed the wine tasting with snack pairing, which featured 4 wines (pick your own adventure style) + a complimentary glass of the Bianco to start. The snacks ranged from olives to hand-cut veggie chips to nuts dusted with porcini mushrooms. It was a great pairing that didn't overpower the flavor of the wines. Our server (I can't remember his name unfortunately, but it might have been Victor?), was so kind and knowledgeable and made us feel right at home there. We learned a lot about the new property, how the different blends are made there, and what to expect from Bella in the future. It was a great time! I look forward to my return and will bring some friends next time!

    A Standout Tasting Experience at Bella Union Winery As a Napa local working in hospitality, I've been to countless wineries over the years--but my recent visit to Bella Union in St. Helena set a new standard. I went with my girlfriend and two other couples, and from the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the elevated and welcoming atmosphere of their new tasting room. The Estate Director, Joe Wilson, greeted us warmly and got us set up. Our wine educator, Win, was incredible--friendly, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about the wines. He took his time with us, answered every question, and made the entire tasting feel both personal and educational. We were also lucky enough to be shown around the stunning property by Michael Accurso, the Director of Winemaking. His insights into Bella Union's approach and style gave us a deeper appreciation for their craft--and their vision. Every wine we tasted was impressive, but the Pinot Noir really stood out. I can't stop buying it--for gifts, for movie nights, and for any excuse I can find. It's that good. What really sets Bella Union apart is the perfect balance of sophistication and approachability. There's no ego here--just genuine hospitality, a thoughtful experience, and damn good wine.

While working in St. Helena, I could never find an opening in a reservation, so here was a great opportunity now that all of us are retired. Our friends live in Clear Lake while we live in Vallejo, so this is a central place to meet. It was the best decision I made because every year for the past several anniversaries, we've gone to Cache Creek to C2. Their food and service is excellent because my husband enjoys poker, but I thought a change of scenery would be nice. And it was! Firstly, it was very kind of the staff to present us with a greeting card signed by everyone -- how sweet and thoughtful! We will cherish that! Secondly, we were very impressed with how the food/wine was locally sourced. It was incredible to hear the story about Custom, the Bull, and taste the difference between the Highland beef compared to Angus. Our waitress was "Erica S." She was engaging, personable, and very informative. My husband and I would definitely like to return to return to experience the dinner menu! We and our guests had the following dishes: Artichoke appetizer Arbororio Biscuits & Gravy Two Cheeseburgers Three Bloody Mary's Farmstead Margarita When they found out it was our anniversary celebration, the house sent over four glasses of complimentary champagne and a dish of dessert -- again, very sweet and kind of them I now understand why so many crowds flock to this restaurant! It's well worth the wait! If you have not experienced a meal there, you must definitely go now!

    I was really excited to try this restaurant for the first time, especially for Mother's Day, and…read morewhile the food itself was excellent, the overall experience was disappointing enough that I would not return. From the beginning, there seemed to be constant miscommunication between staff. We specifically booked an outdoor reservation and were seated inside instead. While mistakes happen, it set the tone for the rest of the evening. The bigger issue involved the wine and corkage fee. We purchased a bottle directly from the market associated with the restaurant and were told by the employee there that the corkage fee would be waived if we bought their wine. When we sat down, our server Sara told us that was not true and that we would still have to pay the fee. I explained what we had been told, and when she asked if I wanted a manager involved, I said yes. Before the manager even arrived or clarified the situation, the server opened our bottle of wine. In the silence and confusion, I reasonably assumed the fee issue had been resolved. Then the manager came over and told us we would still be charged and implied that nobody at the market would have told us otherwise. The way it was handled made my husband and I feel like we were being accused of making the whole thing up, which was especially upsetting on Mother's Day. At that point, the bottle was already opened, so we were essentially stuck paying the fee regardless. Between being seated incorrectly, the poor communication between employees, and how dismissive the situation felt, the service completely overshadowed what should have been a special meal. The rest of the service we felt ignored and there was minimal effort to accommodate. Great food alone is not enough to justify returning when the hospitality experience feels this frustrating and unprofessional.

I came across the Legacy Cave Tour, which is adults-only and offers a lower fee for non-drinkers, which I thought was a nice touch. Unfortunately, the online booking didn't work for me, so I had to call to make the reservation. When we checked in, the woman at the front desk gave me a bit of a weird vibe. After looking up our reservation, she said, "Oh, indeed you do have a reservation." It just felt like an odd response, like... why wouldn't we? is it because we're brown? We arrived a little early, so we spent some time browsing the gift shop upstairs. That's where we met our guide, Will, who was lovely, friendly, welcoming, and very knowledgeable. I mentioned it was my husband's birthday, and he asked if we'd been given a birthday sticker. Apparently they offer special occasion stickers at the front, which the check-in woman never mentioned, but Will made sure we got one, which was a nice touch. The tour itself was a small group, which I really liked. We went into the cave, and for those drinking, the tour included 3 wines. It was interesting learning about the history of Beringer Vineyards, and again, Will did a great job explaining everything. One thing I do wish they offered: for non-drinkers, it would be nice to have something like grape juice or a non-alcoholic option during the tour. There were a few of us in that situation, and it felt a little odd not having anything to sip on. After the tour, we walked the grounds, which was really nice. It's free to explore the property and browse the gift shop, which makes it a pleasant stop even beyond the tour itself. We ended up buying a couple bottles to take home, along with a wine barrel mug that my husband liked.

I was hoping and praying that when my friends who are members of PEJU planned this wine tasting treat, that my stomach and head would be fine and to my surprise, my palate, tongue, stomach and heart were pleased with the Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Fifty/Fifty, and more, including reserve reds Todd served and educated us about! I have NEVER enjoyed red wines like these I tasted at PEJU. Since the time of our outstanding wine tasting experience, I have recommended and raved about Todd and PEJU winery to friends and family who appreciate and value high quality wines and winery experiences. It felt like a vacation getaway being in the tasting room building, admiring the breathtaking stained glass art, all of the art inside and the beautiful art and nature views outside. I appreciate the PEJU staff and management team who welcomed us and were kind to us all the way to the end of our wine tasting experience when we left. This is the kind of treatment that makes us want to return. Napa is a special place for friends, family, and me, and PEJU is now an indelible memory in my Napa adventures!

PEJU is also one of the few wineries with a permit to serve food. If I had known ahead of time, I would've planned to eat here! The rilettes were super tempting, but Joseph advised that if I was planning to eat a meal afterward to stick to the chips and dip - this ended up being quite a generous portion as well, and I really enjoyed the goat cheese truffle dip alongside the wine tasting :) Overall, PEJU is definitely a beautiful winery to visit with excellent service, and I'll definitely be back!
