    We had been to two wine tastings at other wineries in Calistoga. We decided to swing around to St. Helena where Merryvale's wine tasting room is located since we decided to take in another experience. While we didn't have any reservations, we could have a couple of glasses of wine at the main bar, which was very nice, as was the bartender who served us. We enjoyed the red and white we ordered, while taking up a couple of stools at the bar. The wine tasting room was spacious and rustic but polished due to the light woods used for the bar counter and gift shop area. There was a stoned cellar room for more private tastings. Overall, it was a good spot to enjoy some local wine by a winery out of Napa Valley, and very convenient if you are spending the day in downtown St. Helena.

    Nice wine tasting experience. Book in advance and pay in advance for the tasting. We enjoyed our experience and they let us add a wine into our tasting. They had all the glassware and water setup for us when we arrived and the whole experience was rounded out by outstanding staff. No one was too stuffy and everyone was knowledgeable and friendly. We chatted quite a bit about a places to eat and places to go. We were members back in the day, but we are not big drinkers and the shipments would come in too frequently for us. We built up a huge stash in a year. However, I do recall the wines in the shipment were excellent.

    We had an amazing time with Chris who went above and beyond at our drop-in tasting! Ended up buying a few delicious bottles and will definitely be back!

    My friends took me here for the February chocolate + wine pairings and it was so good! They partner with a local chocolate-maker to exclusively supply their chocolates. The wine was good but I particularly loved their Antigua (dessert wine) -- definitely ask to sample. I also appreciate how Merryvale is not too overdone -- it's not overly stuffy like some other wineries, and it still has some of the "grandeur" that is fun about Napa.

    What a fantastic and fun experience. Our reserve tasting was awesome! The winery is beautiful and classy our host was funny and a wealth of knowledge. We went into a walk in wine room that had some of their oldest vintages. I think I saw one from 1998! We will be back to try more cabs!

    Highly recommend visiting Merryvale. Patti was fantastic. She is very knowledgeable, very friendly, and made mine and my wife's afternoon. Ask for her. Absolutely some of the best wine we've had in Napa.

    I had a wonderful time here at Merryvale. They're in a great location and they have plenty of parking. The private rooms inside a massive barrel were so fun and unique. This is a great place to stop off for a tasting. I really enjoyed their Cabernet Sauvignon.

    Chris was da bomb!

    Allow me to begin by saying from the start Merryvale was our choice for our wedding event. Their cask room is so dramatically beautiful as well as historic. It gave our special evening the flair that only Merryvale can. From their award winning wines to their uniquely friendly and accommodating staff. Everyone from the tasting room wine specialist, whose spur of the moment tour helped us decide to have our event at Merryvale, all the way through till the evenings end, the staff was welcoming and delightfully professional and kind. Merryvale is clearly a top choice for any event. Most notable was their willingness to accommodate our wishes. They treated us with respect and communicated in a timely manner. Chantelle and her team worked their magic to provide an amazing evening. From the caterer, Tre Posti, to the florist, Berry & Bloom, the evening was beyond what we had imagined. The true test of the evenings success was the awesome gasp in unison by our guests as Chantelle opened the doors to the cask room. The rooms sheer beauty impressed all of our guests. Setting the tone for what would be a truly magical evening. Thank you all at Merryvale for making our special evening, special.

    2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Calistoga! Yummy

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.

It is a 5-course luncheon with wine pairings hosted in their private enoteca overlooking the vines, complete with a personal attendant and private chef to curate the experience. ​The food was delicious, the wine selection was superb--including their Howell Mountain Cabernets (Cold Springs, Croquet, and Cima)--and the private room was the perfect intimate space. It was such a relief to have a private area where I didn't have to worry about disturbing other guests while having an infant in tow! ​However, I'm giving this experience 4 stars instead of 5 because it felt surprisingly generic for a winery that typically excels at personalization. In advance of our reservation, I was sent a questionnaire requesting our music preferences and celebration details, but neither were acknowledged during the visit. Why ask for that information if it isn't going to be used? It felt like a missed opportunity to make the experience truly magical. ​Overall, it was a good experience with top-tier food and wine, but I expected a bit more of that "Clif Family magic" when it came to the details.

They do food pairing with your wines and also have a food truck with organic food - super yummy! They sell jams and hot sauces etc. They had a small sign with our name on it - such small things really go a long way in making the customer being felt welcomed. The story about the son naming his Clif bars after his dad - such an inspiring story! And him being a musician and doing improv and that's how one of the wines is named. Superb ambiance and experience- do visit this place, when you are in the area!
