    Pork belly wine tasting!!!
    Krystle T.

    The bacon and wine tasting with Francisco was Amazing! The flavors on each slice of bacon were delicious paired with the Priest wine! Can't wait to come back to eat at the restaurant next! Thanks "Paco!"

    Highly recommend the bacon pairing! I waited too long to write my review so my memory is failing me on names, but fantastic staff! Very friendly and accommodating, with great recommendations and detail regarding the pairings. The bacon was delicious (of course I enjoyed the wine as well!) We also did the cheeseboard which had a great, flavorful selection. Cute tasting room in Yountville that I'll definitely head back to for a repeat tasting.

    We didn't bother to make reservations anywhere and so we just wanted to pop right in randomly to see what the wine tasted like. We were seated outside and had no idea how hot Napa would be that day. I personally enjoyed their Sauvignon Blanc and the red was good as well. It was a very cute place and we definitely will return in the future! Our friends from Ohio have never been to California or Napa so this was a sweet treat!

    So delicious! I wish I could make chicken like this, and paired with the kimchi and as a unique delicious combo. The fries and dipping sauce was so tasty. Definitely add this to your list of restaurants to grab food and sit upstairs while you are in Yountville.

    Absolutely loved priest ranch! We did the taste of terroir tasting first thing on a Friday morning and had the place almost to ourselves. The host was so incredible friendly and knowledgeable, the wines were amazing! Fell in love with the sauv blanc and I'm a red person! We got a lot more tastings that what's standard included they really go above and beyond. The chocolate tasting was a real treat and so different from what's out there. Presentation was gorgeous too. Definitely would come back!

    Priest Ranch was one of my favorite wineries to visit on our tour of Napa last year. One of the reasons I really loved my experience at the Yountville tasting for what was our 13th winter stop was that it was a bacon and wine pairing. The tasting room in Yountville was very hip and chic, with a sophisticated design that comprised the wine cellar with its glass walls and wooden shelving. While we enjoyed the experience at one of the high top tables, the lounge area is also very lovely with the fireplace and leather sofas. Priest Ranch meticulously crafted a bacon and wine pairing that was supremely magical and bursted with life and luscious levity. Our host on this culinary excursion, Jose, was the man. He was incredibly gracious and accommodating, as we enjoyed the pairings that went wonderfully well with the wine selections. We enjoyed the double barrel and lot releases so much that we picked up a few bottles to ship back home. Additionally, we made some new friends during our tasting, which is always nice when you are imbibing on wine and noshing on bacon. But my oh my... the bacon! Between the marinate, glaze and preparation of each, the bacon was sensational and paired very well with each of the selected wines. I even saw how each compared to the others. Very magical. The synergy of bacon and wine led to an another amazing experience

    One of the best experiences I've have at a tasting! We were on our annual girls trip and they accommodated us last minute. James was super super helpful. We will definitely come again. I wish I can give many more stars!

    Fun place to go, in Yountville, where you can get a decent smash burger. Seats outside were nice too.

    I came to Napa with a few girl friends and we decided to just stop into Priest Ranch's tasting room in Yountville, little did we know we would be spending our entire day here! We were helped by Juan and Emma. Juan is an amazing host full of knowledge and humor; he helped us pick which tasting we wanted based off our preferences. Emma is incredibly sweet and made this amazing cheese board with the cutest cheese flowers! Our party sat outside where the weather was perfect, we were checked on regularly and enjoyed our beautiful Sunday afternoon By the time we left we were making plans to come back to see the restaurant ,which will be next door and opening in a couple of weeks, and for the live music they will have during winter

    Visited the Yountville tasting room with an appointment for the unique bacon tasting. We had never seen or heard of such a thing, and so the novelty got us there. The wines were nice and the bacon pairings were really interesting and complementary. It is definitely something different to try.

    Bacon & Wine Experience
    Melody K.

    There was one day we chose to stay in town and go to tasting rooms within walking distance of our hotel. Priest ranch intrigued me for the Bacon & Wine Experience: four distinct thick cuts of pork belly with four of our wines. I had made reservations well in advance on a Thursday at 3:00. Upon arrival we were able to sit outside which was nice. I will say though, this was probable my least favorite out of the tastings we went to, nothing particularly wrong, just sort of blah. Our Tasting Room Host, introduced himself, poured our wines, served our bacon and left. The pairing was fun to try but not a repeat.

    Well done Chandon! It had been 10 years since I last visited Chandon, partly because I live in…read moreSonoma county and prefer to taste in Sonoma county as past experiences in Napa have left me feeling underwhelmed for the price point. On this most recent experience, I was invited to attend with 2 friends who are both wine club members and I have to say, I was watching how others were hosted as we were all seated at tables with our parties fairly close to one another and I have to say, the experiences were similar in style, with a bit more TLC for the wine club member experience, but all in all, if I need another membership, this is one I'd consider as I love Sparkling wine and the service was not pretentious or rushed in any way. I felt very comfortable and the vibes were all positive. The selection of flights were great and a reasonable price point. If I had friends who were visiting and wanted a Napa County experience, this is one I would definitely recommend. They have updated their tasting spaces and have so many different areas that even on a busy day, it doesn't feel crowded or overwhelming.

    I love the wine, and our visit was pleasant. Thr renovation looks gorgeous and the place looks far…read moremore polished than it was when I last visited 3 years ago. The price tag versus what you get is off - our wine host didnt bother to pour us anything when we sat down (it took around 15 mins to get a glass of wine) - once we did get wine, it was off to the races. The wine is great, but is clear that Chandon is more interested in their club membership than the experience. The second we finished our tasting experience, the entire thing shifted from "taste our wine" to "buy into our wine club". It was a sudden, very jarring change. I have had better experiences with pushy time share sellers than Chandon salespeople. At least with them, I get a gift card, park tickets or a hotel stay. I got. Nothing from Chandon. Chamdon will always be my favorite wine, but for a sparkling experience, I am going to find another winery to visit or go attend a timeshare presentation where at least I get something for sitting through the annoying sales presentation.

I highly recommend adding the butter and cheese tasting to your experience, it's some of the best butter you'll ever eat.

I also really love the seating because it feels like you're just sitting at home, with friends, enjoying amazing wines. The prices are pretty high on most of their wines but they are worth it! I'm so thankful our friends introduced us to Handwritten, it's one of our favorite tasting rooms now. Definitely add it to your list if you're going to be visiting Yountville.

We ordered the Bread and Butter Experience which included 4 wines, white truffle potato chips, Cheese Straws Bouchon Bakery baguette, three artisan domestic butters, Salame, and Cheese and of course the wonderful hospitality from Amy. I would definitely come back when in Yountville. Atmosphere: elegant and intimate. Service: excellent. Food & Wine: excellent.

    The award for best array of wines ever offered at a tasting goes to The Yount Room…read more Let me clarify: this is an award I've created, in my own head. I like wine (reds, specifically) and those featured here were the most aromatic and enjoyable lot I've ever sampled. Having been a one-time member of Conn Creek I received an invitation to a (complimentary) tasting here, as they morphed from Cornerstone Cellars into The Yount Room. The Yount Room features Cornerstone wines but also the wines of others lacking tasting rooms, including some like Conn Creek, whose tasting room was lost in the fires. Situated in Yountville's historic old railway station, the interior space is a stylish hybrid tasting room/retail space. A record player and a stack of vinyl called out and host exemplar, Sean, was agreeable to spinning whatever we (the sole customers at the time) requested. Stones hits played to a Bossa Nova beat and Memphis lilts from Dusty Springfield made the visit quite perfect but without such perfect wines it'd be a lot less so. The Yount Room does tastings as well as wines by the glass and I can't wait to return for the latter. I don't know what's on their "by the glass" list but if it's anything like what was served at the tasting* it'd be impossible to go astray. * Tasting included: - Hibou, 2024 Sauvignon Blanc, Winemaker: Keith Emerson - Status Quo, 2024 Pinot Noir, Winemaker: Adam Lee - Cornerstone, 2021 Cabernet Franc, Winemaker: Kari Arranger - Cain, 2021 Cain Fire, Winemaker: Chris Howell - Conn Creek, 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon, Winemaker: Jean Hoeflinger
