We had a wonderful wine tasting experience at Brasswood! Our server, Josh, was knowledgeable and attentive! I like the way he describes what tannins feel like in terms of wine. We did the Taste of Napa Valley Bar Tasting, which had three pours of their current vintages. We had the 2024 Sauvignon Blanc, 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon, and 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon. There are not many wineries making 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, so it was a surprise, especially since I used to enjoy the HB Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon from Peju Winery. The 2018 Cab stood out with brambleberry aromas, rich notes of blackberry, green tea, and baking chocolate. Highly recommended! read more

Such a disappointment. The bathroom was disgusting. The food was okay. Not hot when it arrived at the table. The duck risotto was good. The chicken piccata was bland. I requested a 30-minute wine tasting. A lady came to the table and told us that we could do a cave and wine tasting. I said no just a 30 minute. We went to the wine tasting room and they tried to get us to do the cave and wine tasting. I said we just want to do the 30 minute Tasting. We were charged for the signature wine tasting, which was a little over double the price. Very disappointed with the high-pressure sales tactics. Would not recommend. Will not be back. recommend. read more

I very much enjoyed our wine tasting experience at Brasswood Cellars. We went in as walk-ins a little before 11am on a Monday. The space is very nice, with plenty of seating, and standing room located at the bar. We chose the Bar Tasting menu which gives you 3 tastings, one white and two reds. Our server was very friendly, gave us good information on the wines, and when we mentioned we were interested in eating lunch at the Brasswood Kitchen and Bar Restaurant, he walked over to make sure we were able to get a table. We purchased a bottle of our favorite to take home. I'd love to visit Brasswood again! read more

We had a private wine tasting and food experience and had the room across from the tasting area. It was so beautiful. The fire was going, table was set with a gorgeous floral arrangement. We had Francesca who did absolutely amazing at explaining the grounds, the wines and the food. Our chef Christopher Johnson made every dish so perfectly. He was exceptional and my goodness....it was one of the best meals we've had on this trip and in general. I absolutely loved the fresh beat salad, the wild mushroom ravioli, sous vide quail with the huckleberry Demi glaze and the seared imperial farm wagyu with the macaire potato and Cabernet reduction sauce.....need I say more? Truly such a perfect experience and I would highly recommend doing it! We will be back! read more

We had a fabulous experience here, largely bc of Francesca, who was so kind and warm the entire visit and sent us personalized notes the next day. My favorites were the 2021 Coombsville ($95), Cabernet franc, 2018 Coombsville Cab ($155) and the 2023 Rose of Pinot Noir ($48), so we purchased a bottle of each and they shipped cross country to NYC within a week. We did our private tasting in the cave which came with a great cheese plate for pairings. And highly recommend saving room and time to grab a bite to eat at their restaurant on the property - it was delicious! We failed to make a reservation but Francesca was kindly able to squeeze us in. Overall, had a great time here! It was probably our favorite of the entire weekend (unfortunately had a couple disappointing visits). read more

This is a late review from June '24 Great place! The pulled mozzarella is a definite must try! The ambience was nice, server was very pleasant, but a bit distracted. He made up for it with comping us a cocktail! Hubs n I would go again for sure. read more

The grounds at Brasswood are relaxing. We were warmly greeted when entering the tasting room. Joshua was our pourer and he was fantastic. He had us and the kids laughing the entire time. The guy has the most endearing laugh we've ever heard. Wines: I don't enjoy white wine much, but their Chardonnay had a full bodied flavor and was very tasty. The reds were a hit with us and we enjoyed savoring those as well. We are grateful our concierge recommended Brasswood, it was the first winery of our trip and set a really high bar, especially with Joshua's customer service! We went to the restaurant afterwards and enjoyed the fresh mozzarella with bread, short rib pasta, lamb shanks, pizza, and bacon burger...yum! Looking forward to going back on our next trip. read more

Would not Let us sit down unless we had The 65.00 tasting. We had the uncorked pass. They gave us three tastings. All Others gave us 5. Seven was our server. Never been so demeaned. This does not Take away from The cabernet being very good. He blamed his decision on the higher ups. Then he proceeded to tell me he likes the finer things in life which insulted me. Such a first world problem I told him then he was scattered. read more

Brasswood Cellars - Just a sit down area not allocated to anything. - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Saint Helena, California

Last Saturday 7/31, my wife and I visited your beautiful winery and experienced your wonderful '17 Cab. Compliments.   Unfortunately, while sitting on the lounge chairs by the fountain enjoying our wine and charcuterie, a Hispanic female staff member wearing a green top rudely commanded "You need to clear out." We were shocked! Before we even had a chance to pick up our belongings, she again barked "You need to move now!"   No one told us that the area was "off-limits" and, in fact, the wonderful staff at the café brought our wine and cheese platter directly to us. This spoiled what would have been a 5-star experience for us and an outing for my staff.   A beautiful winery, sadly spoiled by one staff member. read more

Seven was so welcoming, knowledgeable and taught us more and more about wine! Our group left feeling like we know much more about wine and truly enjoyed the taste of all the wines! read more

When we arrived, they had a beautiful table set up for our party with a custom tasing menu prepared to welcome us. Such a wonderful way to start the experience!! Then, the wines were incredible!! But what truly set the experience apart was our host, Josh. He explained each wine clearly and took the time to answer our numerous questions. It felt like having wine with an old friend. Would definitely recommend stopping by for a tasting and asking for Josh!!!! read more

We went in as a group of 8 and had their wine and food pairing. The location is beautiful. They have scenic outdoor seating. The land scalping and decor is excellent. We started off with a Chardonnay and their hand pulled mozzarella. The mozzarella is delicious. Best I've ever had. Next we has the House-made pappardelle pasta and 2016 Cabernet. Pasta was tender and wine was juicy and very fruit forward. Then we had lamb chops with their 2018 Cabernet. I liked this paring better than the 2016. The richest of the lamb and Cabernet worked well. We ended the meal with the butterscotch panda cotta. It was smothered in a caramel rum sauce. I dreamt about that dessert for the next couple of days. It was sooooo good. This is a great location and definitely recommend a visit. read more

We were wine tasting at HALL winery (a must if you're in St Helena) and the couple next to us recommended we come here. This play is hidden within a winery and is very classy. The ambiance is modern/industrial and very dark, we came around 4 PM so there weren't that many people there. All our food was great! We ordered all appetizers The roasted Brussel sprouts salad came with an egg and was very flavorful. The calamari and fish and chips were also delicious as well, but not anything out of the park. I also appreciated the complimentary bread. Would come here again for dinner sometime! read more

Absolutely beautiful building. All of the furniture was mid-century modern and pristine. We made tasting reservations online for our group in advance and were seated at a large table that was perfect for our party size. The woman who handled our tasting sounded like an owner in the way she spoke of the wineries history and future, and she did a great job explaining each wine to us. She answered all of our questions with ease and I really enjoyed the tasting overall. We tasted 4 wines for $40 +tax, which was the most expensive tasting we had all day. I wish we had gotten a few more tastings, but the wines were good and the pours were larger because she was not using a tasting stopper. There was food available at the bakery or at a sit down restaurant. Upon leaving the winery we went to the bakery and all of the tarts and cookies were delicious, some even warm. Decorations for a wedding were being setup outside and it was truly picture perfect. I can only imagine how beautiful it would look when it was all finished! read more

We could not fault this place! What a special experience. We were visiting from Australia and had done a few experiences in Napa and found some of them to be a bit repetative. We booked at Brasswood hoping for something different and WOW did it deliver. We booked the Sensory Wine and Food Pairing lunch. It seemed a little pricey but we were glad we signed up depsite our reservations about the cost. It started with our wonderful host Jordanna and got better all the time. The tour was short and sweet but great and meant we spent the majority of time in the spectacular sensory room. The food was perfect and Jordanna waited on us like royalty while still allowing us to have a very private lunch. They were also very happy for us to use the facilities and linger for another glass of wine after our experince concluded. This winery has a very different story to many others and i really hope it does well. We will definitely be back. read more

Brasswood Cellars - Super cute! - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Saint Helena, California

We did a cellar tasting and it was absolutely amazing. Our guide brought us through the caves and showed an immense knowledge of the process and production of the wines. We had a beautiful tasting of their Cabernet Sauvignon wines through the years. Highly recommend going from most recent to oldest (we did 2018, 2017,2016,and 2015). Our guide recommended to perform the tasting that way and I am happy we did. It was a lovely tasting and my fiancé and I learned a lot. The setting was intimate and every and all of our questions were answered. We ended up purchasing few bottles and we are very excited to enjoy them as they age. Highly recommend the experience. I was excited to try a "younger" vineyard and it completely blew away my expectations. Highly recommend. read more

We drove passed Brasswood while out for a Sunday drive yesterday and gave them a quick ring to see had they any bookings free for two people - thankfully they did and we quickly turned around and made our way there. On arrival we were met by Jonathon - who is an absolute pleasure to deal with. He had our table all set up and told us about the winery, the bakery, the kitchen and most importantly the wine. All staff were wearing masks and plenty of signs are posted about wearing your mask and practising social distancing. Jonathon was so knowledgable and didn't mind us asking so many questions. You can tell he really enjoys his job. When we were leaving Jonathon gave us a mini tour of the estate and a handwritten note of some recommendations for wineries and restaurants in the area as we mentioned we had just moved to the area. This place is an absolute gem! read more

We ended our day of wine tasting here last month. We had a great tasting in the tasting room and then got a tour of the grounds. I thought the outdoor wedding event area was beautiful, there's a 3-tiered sea glass colored water fountain (that looks like a cake), so fun! The private tasting room had these displays of various wines and the scents and tastes that go with them like a chardonnay, sauvignon blanc, grenache, etc. You can left up the glass and smell them, that was cool. There's a store that had beautiful gift items and gifts for yourself! We had a bite to eat in the restaurant bar. The fresh mozzarella was so good, I can still remember the toasted bread rubbed with garlic used to carry the cheese to my mouth. Yum! A perfect end to a day of wine tasting. read more

Paige is the best tour guide!! HIGHLY recommend Cave Tour and Tasting! The Cabernet Sauvignon was delicious!!

Grabbed a glass of black belt at the bar and then sat outside at the picnic tables for a nice mid-afternoon snack. Perfect spot!

Got to do a tasting this past weekend and it was really amazing. I loved the decor and the wines we tasted were a perfect way to end the summer. The sauv blanc, chardonnay and 65 Roses Rose were my favorite. As for the tasting, Emily hosted us and she was knowledgable and kind. I can't wait to come back when it's not Covid and do a cellar tour! read more

This is probably the worst restaurant/wine tasting we went to our whole trip. We went in a great mood ready to enjoy everything brasswood has to offer (including the prepaid tasting). We left so disappointed and honestly felt bullied by the staff. Long story short we got charged for more then double what we paid for and got nothing in return. (the food/service was horrible). I would not return to this overpriced place considering we had a great time at all the other places we went to. Highly recommend going anywhere else besides here! Seriously go anywhere else!!! read more

My fiance and I had an incredible time at Brasswood's this week. We did the "Lunch Pairing" tasting which included five different types of wine and four courses of food - everything was delicious and the environment was stunning yet relaxed. Our server, Raffi, was incredible. He understood that we enjoyed wine but didn't know a lot, and managed to teach us a lot without making us feel silly. He made this incredible experience even better and has certainly convinced us to come back! read more

I'm almost hesitant to write a review for hidden gem Brasswood because it remains a semi-private oasis. Our host Ted is a charismatic, knowledgeable storyteller who gave us a private tasting and tour. He showed us the grounds, wine cave, library, and even picked walnuts and grapes off the vine for us to taste. The Sauvignon blanc is one of the best I've ever had! read more

Brasswood Cellars - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Saint Helena, California

We were a party of six on Friday and you would've thought we were bothering them to show up we were barely spoken to, we were rushed through a $65 person tasting of four mediocre wines with a girl who could not make eye contact. Two of us got short pores with a bunch of sediment one was on top of a Chardonnay remnant. I don't know what the problem was but we felt very unwelcome and unappreciated and ripped off. I spoke to two managers neither seemed to really care. Would highly recommend Davies, Schramsber,, Frank Family anything but Brasswood! read more

Found this place by recommendation from staff at Twomey. Spot on! Started with the hand pulled mozzarella. Not on menu but definitely worth asking for. Then had the braised short rib parpardelle which was excellent. So much flavor. Perfect after a day of wine tasting. This will be a destination dish going forward. Finished with the butterscotch pana cotta. Very sweet but rosemary cookie added the perfect balance. Brian our server was most helpful in assisting us with our selections. Great personal service! read more

Not impressed with the tasting side We arrived and our gal was not having a good day. She was a bit rude and short. She looked like she maybe was having a bad day but it was for sure killing our mood. We were all excited to do a tasting and friends had brought us there because they had gone before and were excited to come back. Our gal had stains all over her clothes, chipped nails and kept playing with a touching the spout spinning it around with her fingers then pouring wine out of it. It was sort of gross. She was touching and picking up stuff and playing with her hair then hand her hands on the spout. It was not a good expirience. However we also had dinner reservations and our dinner was very good! Tha was the saving grace. read more

We stopped into the tasting room and were hosted by Ted Davidson, who was equally knowledgeable about wine as he was a delightful storyteller. He led us on an adventure in learning not just about Brasswood wines, but also wines of the Napa/Sonoma regions and of the world. Ted's intriguing career began as an opera singer and then with the Four Seasons in wine and beyond. As such, Ted is well-traveled and cultured, and he has an in-depth knowledge of world wines one can only gain from experience. As world-travelers and pursuers of beautiful wines, our experience at Brasswood with Ted as our host was truly genuine and memorable. We look forward to visiting Brasswood and Ted again very soon! read more

This was a surprise for me when I visited Brasswood. This is definitely a must do if you are planning to visit Napa Valley. The place is beautiful and very well designed. It has everything. Caves, Restaurant, Bakery and most important the wine. We were surprised by the quality of their wines. The Sauvignon Blanc was one of the best, The Chardonnay fantastic, I bought a bottle, The Cabernet Sauvignon is to Par with Hall and Alpha Omega, Also bought a bottle. Albino Lopez took care of our group. He is very well educated on the wines. He is well mannered and friendly. He educated us on the wines and guide us during the tasting experience with unique dedication. He makes you feel at home and important. Look for him when visit. read more

Grant lead us through a beautiful lunch with wine pairings for a friend's bachelorette party. We were in the private tasting room which was gorgeously decorated and we were greeted with a crisp glass of Saving Blanc to begin our afternoon. The menu was absolutely superb!! We started with the hand-pulled mozzarella, then we were blown away by the short rib ragout. The lamb chop main was the best I have ever had and the panne cotta was the perfect blend of savory & sweet - my favorite!! Make sure to stop in the bakery & pick up some sweet treats for your ride home. My favorite was the lavender shortbread cookie. I was especially impressed that the chef created a completely separate tasting menu for our bride who is vegetarian. In between courses Grant shared information about the wines, winery, chef & the gorgeous event space. We even got a chance to meet the sommelier!! Overall a wonderful experience I have not been able to stop talking about! read more

And you have to go to restaurant and ask to have the pulled mozzarella, its not on the menu but they will make it for you! read more

DO NOT COME HERE. Service was unacceptable, we paid for things we never received and they refused to refund us. We were offered a gift card, but we said we lived out of town.
