We returned to Sonoma in 2026 with a small group and booked another tour. Booking and communication was a breeze. Very good. Ends up the property I rented offered a wine passport and we were to receive a discount. I called to confirm and they let me know the driver would apply the discount when we paid him the day of the tour. All sounded wonderful and was very clearly communicated. The tour in 2026 only went to 3 wineries. Two were just ok and one was not good. I don't think anyone on our tour purchased anything here. The time at each winery was like a typical tasting with some information on their winery. But no real information on Sonoma and Napa and the history of the area. At the end our driver had no clue on our discount and kept telling me he would get in trouble for charging me less. He insinuated I was making it all up. In the end he did honor the discount but seemed he did it as a favor not that it was a program that Platypus participates in. All in all I was disappointed in this wine tour and would no go on a platypus tour again and would not recommend them. Maybe we just caught them on a bad day. Luckily all the people on our tour were delightful so that made for a nice day.

Quality/Quantity - I had a hard time with the website making my appointment, it's a user issue as I am just not tech savvy. So I called and someone actually answered the phone and made my appointment for me, THANK you! We arrived 15 mins early, so we hung out in the lobby reading all the history, etc. Then Skip took us to the best view overlooking the vineyard for our tasting; see pictures! We sampled almost ALL the reds! All of which were good. See pictures. I like the fact that we did side by side tastings of many of his wines. My favorites were the 2022 Primitivo and 2021 Malbec, which we bought a few bottles of. Ambiance - Secluded private winery. Close to main Downtown Napa, but far enough away for privacy and a feeling of being far away. Appointment only, so very private and customer focused. Typically no more than 3 parties at a time. Today was considered a very busy day as there were 4 parties including us, lol. Gated private estate. 200 acres. Plenty of parking, especially since hosting only 3 guests at a time. Events - See their website. Well behaved dogs are allowed outdoors. Service - Skip is a history buff and we both talked for hours... After leaving, well really the next day (LOL), I realized that our tasting was supposed to be only 60 minutes. I guess because we got along so well, we stayed until closing! And he gave me a glass with a generous splash and let us walk the property alone after they left! So welcoming and trusting. Price - Depends on which tasting and what you buy; see their website for prices. Tastings range from $50 to $100 per person. One free designated driver allowed. Tasting fees waived with wine equivalent purchases. Hike tours $75 per person ($60 for club members). See their website for more information.

The experience is unique and the train itself is a novelty worth appreciating at least once. Service was funny, quick and very informative , telling us about the area, they did a wonderful job handling our large party. However when I think Napa I think wine tasting hopping between venues, exploring different wineries and really immersing yourself in what the valley has to offer. So make time to do both! The Wine Train doesn't quite deliver that and the views from the dome were honestly just okay. For the price point I think the better Napa experience is booking a private driver and hitting multiple venues at your own pace. You get more wine, more variety and a fuller picture of what Napa actually is. No regrets! just a one and done for me.

But its absolutely worth the money and if you can find a big enough group to book tickets with even better. The staff is fun and knowledgeable. I appreciated the history given during the tour. It was a gloomy rainy day but I still enjoyed myself. First off the lobby area is great, check in is smooth and they have a cool 360 operator that you can take videos on! The food is upscale and could use seasoning in my opinion. But still good. You get 4 courses. Breakfast, Dinner (refer to pic of menu), a cheese course, and a Dessert course. Look - Beef or Chicken- delicious- you cant go wrong and pick the creme brulee as Dessert. If you drink wine (and i mean DRINK WINE) you will absolutely get the bang for your buck. But if youre just there for vibes maybe spring for the lesser price ticket. We stopped at 2 wineries. The last had an Italian market with snacks and sandwiches. The tours itself were informative but wouldnt say fun. Personally wish they had a later start time. The check in starts at 945a and we were done by 4:30p. I feel like my group was tired and took us a minute to get into it. It also rained. But didnt stop our group from dancing in it and the employees joined in which was amazing!!

We did not end up having our wine tasting experience here, but we were able to walk around, and it was beautiful.

One of the things that I miss the most since coronavirus hit has been seeing my close friends and…read morefamily during these socially distancing times. So needless to say, I was beyond excited to set up a virtual wine tasting with Prime Solum in Napa Valley with two of my closest friends. I wasn't sure what to expect when I received four bottles of wine overnight from Napa. If you're a lightweight like me, keep that in mind since you'll be opening all four bottles at once to taste. Prime Solum is different from just about any other wine tasting experience. First off, they see wine tasting as a community experience to be enjoyed with friends or in a group. It's the social aspect that really adds to the experience. We couldn't agree more. Another thing that sets Prime Solum apart from other tasting experiences is that they encourage you to taste the wines side-by-side, rather than the typical tasting of one at a time. But why does this matter? Elana, the tasting room manager, explained that it's a way to encourage people to go back and forth to taste what makes the wine stand out, and how it evolves as you sample other wines. Not sure you'd be into a virtual wine tasting? Afraid you'll say or do something awkward? Don't worry, you're with friends (who will never let you live it down!). Am I projecting? I say, just blame it on the wine. If you like a deal as much as I do, just think of all the money and time you'll save with a virtual trip to Napa Valley -- all from the comfort of your home. Virtual tasting experiences start at $123 USD for a wine set. We recommend the New Release Tasting Set ($157 USD for four bottles).

I wish I could remark more about their wine, but I'm truly not a wine connoisseur but I will say it was excellent if that makes any sense to any of the wine enthusiasts lol! Let me say we dropped by a couple of well-known wineries prior which we will not mention and asked if we could just have a glass of wine. Both of those well-known places denied us a glass of wine. I get it, that's not how your business operates. So you didn't gain the $200 per person for a wine tasting, but you also lost the opportunity of an authentic review. Which is worth more. I will say that Bread and butter did not make much money off our 2 glasses of wine, but Ray truly knows how to operate a business welcoming anyone through his doors and now not only receiving a reputable review, but we will be back and refer our family and friends!
