As the name brought my girl and I inside Rebel for some tasting, we were kindly greeted by the vinter himself, Jason. We came to learn that his grapes are harvested and produced in South Africa, making these wines, organic, raw, and unique tasting to the palette. You want to go in here being open for something new and not the same old, same sold, that's what I really loved about it. We enjoyed our glasses of white and Rose and even tasted a delicious orange wine! The white was smooth and came in stronger than you'd expect. The Rose was super yummy smelling and had some deep notes and that classic rose finish without overkill of sweetness. The vibe and atmosphere here is awesome and so chill, Jason will educate you on all his wines to food your liking, he's a stellar dude. We also got two cans to go! read more

Popped in to check out their Open Mic Night. Apparently I came in on an evening where it was a bit more slow than usual, but TJ was great and made you feel right at home as she worked her way around the bar. I did a tasting and while I didn't "love" anything, I did enjoy glasses of the Picpoul and Chenin Blanc. For me, this feels more of a place I'd come in to hang out and relax with a glass rather than do a tasting... but you do, afterall, need to figure out what you like! read more

We stopped in here as we are from out of town. The man working the bar allowed our family and our dogs in to enjoy some wine and board games. It was a very enjoyable experience, I wish I had taken more pictures. I would definitely come back again it was fun and relaxing. Maybe try adding non alcoholic beverages and water to your menu for the family. Also, the decor could use an update with something more pleasing to the eyes. Snacks would be a huge plus, cheese or fruits. But not sure if this is ok in Napa County. The wine we tasted was very good. read more

If you're looking for a low-key and relaxed wine tasting experience, check out The Rebel. The vibe here is chill and comfortable, and they definitely let you take your time--no rushing whatsoever. Plus, the wine itself was very good! read more

I order a glass of wine and had a few sips. I noticed there was a fruit fly floating in my glass. My husband very nicely let the bartender know and ask if they could refresh the glass. The server looked at the fly and said "yup it happens." Okeeeey. Prolly won't be returning here. read more

Perfect wine bar to do a tasting at. My boyfriend and I spent a day exploring downtown Napa. I'm so glad we included Rebel Vintners as one of our stops. We went around 3pm on a Saturday and did the $30 6 wine flight. There were a fair amount of other groups inside at both the bar area and tables. There was still plenty of seating available though so we had no wait even as a walk-in. We enjoyed all 6 of the wines and my favorite was the Uncharted 2019 Pet Nat. It was so crisp and was just such a refreshing sparkling wine! My boyfriend really liked the Uncharted 2012 red blend since it was really smooth and had great taste to it. The tasting itself is a great deal and has one of the best prices we saw in the area. The staff was also very kind and informative. We even met the man who bottled the 2012 red himself! Great person to talk to and I'd love to come back next time we're back in Napa. read more

Rebel Vintners - the pet nat and red blend were our favorites! - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Napa, California

In downtown Napa. They have $35 for tasting of 6 wines - 3 white/rose and 3 reds. If you purchase 3 bottles of wine, the $35 fee is waived. Very friendly owner and locals having a drink there are very friendly and helpful with suggestions for dinner in town and where to visit. Very relaxing environment and people can just hang out there to have some wine. Would recommend. read more

When exploring downtown, Rebel appears casual and more of a local-vibe but let me tell you, their wines are delicious!! Aesthetic - 8/10 Simple yet satisfying. Comfortable couches to large format tables, there is every option in this lounge-style spot. Staff - 10/10 Seriously friendly and hard working! There was only one person working when we were there and he was hustling to keep everyone's glasses filled! Our wine pours: Pet Nat (glass) - 10/10 - Order this! It is so interesting. Very crispy, bubbly, with this sweet little kiss at the end. Gewurztraminer (glass) - 10/10 - Refreshing and light, easy to drink and you'll want more! We will absolutely be coming back to Rebel next time we want a casual glass in downtown! read more

Recommended: yes! Had a great time Price: great price (my boyfriend and I shared) - it was $30 for 6 wines (3 whites/3 reds) Service: very nice and very informative Details of my experience: My boyfriend and I were walking around downtown just to kill some time before our dinner. We spontaneously decided to do the wine tasting here. Now I'm not a wine expert or a big wine drinker or an alcoholic drinker at all. I am so light weight and I rarely finish my drinks most of the time so I avoid getting alcohol drinks at most places since I can't finish them, I'll probably be drunk, and don't want to spend the money on it if I'm not going to finish it lol. But the wines we got to try was great. Most of the time I'm not a crazy about it but some of these were really good! I really like the white wines they had. The red wines were great where it has more of a bolder taste to it. The red blend was definitely interesting and you can taste the different tastes in one sip. Again, I'm not a wine expert so I can't describe the different tastes but you get an initial taste, a blend flavor, and then an after taste. I am also not a huge fan of wine that are extra dry but most of these weren't too dry. I believe the staff that was helping us was name Steven. He was great and very kind. He even offered us a 7th sampler of another red wine. I didn't get the name but that was so nice of him to do that even though at that point I'm already starting to feel it haha. But my boyfriend and I had a great time. Definitely will want to come back another time for their great service and try something new. read more

Rebel Vintners - Wine tasting menu. They were great. I realized like the whites more than the reds. - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Napa, California

Went to celebrate part of my birthday with my best friend here and enjoyed it. Loved all the artwork inside and the service was great. I had a glass of rose and loved it! It was awesome that the woman that served us grew up in Tucson like we did- small world! I forget her name but she was super nice! Also random side note but cool inside the bathrooms they have a chalk wall where you can leave messages if you want too! Can't wait to go back to visit next time I'm in Napa! read more

We had a great time at Rebel Vintners. Got to taste wines from three different local winemakers. Kevin was an awesome host- will definitely return for the Sangiovese! read more

I had the best time here! Tim behind the bar was super knowledgeable and accommodating, and the wines were incredible. I'd say I bought a bottle of 90% of the wines I tasted. Beautiful location too in the heart of downtown Napa. Definitely add this stop to your list of you'll be spending the day downtown read more

We started our day with me commenting on how everyone has a story about how pretentious Napa can be, and how I've never had that experience in my years going. Well maybe I jinxed myself! If you are looking for pretentious and condescending tasting experience at only $40/per person, you've found your place! Yes, the spot itself is cool, but it doesn't make up for the subpar wine (both reds and whites served in the same glasses) and the rude behavior from the bartender. We were done with our tastings after this place and went over to Charlie Palmer Steakhouse for a martini which they gladly served us with a smile. So many other options, no need to ever return here. read more

Really nice looking place, walked inside and manager said ok, but the when I told him nine people he said oh no. PLACE WAS EMPTY. YOU COULD HAVE SAT ANOTHER 40 PEOPLE. HE STILL SAID NO! Well you enjoy it buddy talking to that lonely woman, you couldn't get away from. Your hospitality has been the worst all week. Cheers Saturday Nov 13th at 8PM, whoever his manager is. read more

Loved the wines here! They have good whites and reds, and I'm all about a winery where I can find a new white wine I like. Great ambiance and loved their music choice. Our host was very knowledgeable and a pleasure to be around. read more

Such a fun and relaxed wine bar in a town full of stuff, formal wine bars. Hubby and I shared a bottle of rose perfect for a warm summer night. The staff were friendly and outgoing and they leave you alone for the most part when you're playing their their board games, arcade and jenga. We had fun playing nostalgic family computer games on the arcade like Pacman and Galaga. There are various board games and card games available too! The highlight was us playing Jenga while being buzzed with wine. If you're looking for a chill and fun place to drink wine and hangout then this is the place to go! read more

This place is a MUST if you're visiting Napa or even if you live here. It has the most Authentic vibe with some of the most interesting, unique and delicious wines- with out the rediculius Napa price tag of a hundred damn dollars for every bottle. The 3 vintner owners are great guys who didn't come from trusts funds or huge corporate money - but just got out there to produce wine with their talented and artisinal handprint on them. Nothing hipster here - Authentic, DELICIOUS small lot wines that inspire. #getinthere read more

love this place, a must do if your downtown napa. Great wines and the winemakers thera are great conversations.

I love to drop in here occasionally and taste some wines that aren't the usual catch22 Cabs of Napa, they're there too, but sit up to the bar, order a chilled Rousanne, chat with one of three winemakers showcasing their wines, and other wine drinkers up for a chinwag, Also dog friendly, even if they've just had a dip in the river read more

Found this spot by pure chance and loved that their entire tasting room was filled with an eclectic group of people coming together to dabble in the Napa Wine Tasting experience. This location is conveniently located in downtown Napa beside some decent eateries in case you get a bit too tipsy to make the drive home or back to your lodging. Maybe call ahead because the hours said they close at 6p, but they were still open when we finished our dining nearby around 715p. Very warm and welcoming venue, John was one of the best hosts/wine experts we have experienced for a full warm welcoming experience. Love that they have a little bit for everyone. There are some bar seats, of course.. but also some picnic style seating along the windows to one side of the building and on the other there are comfy couches and loungers along the main street side of windows. Very warm and almost the feel of being in your own living room with friends. Couple TVs showing the NFL games (so everyone wins!) and even a vintage arcade game in the corner. Sampling Flights are reasonably priced and you get to really experience the differences this location has to offer. Highly recommend giving this non-standard spot a try, we bought 5 bottles! I wish more spots had a unique approach like Rebel. read more

Every time I'm in Napa I go for his place because I can get some work done while having a good glass of wine. I particular like the couches by the window. They have books and table games if you are interested in that. Also, they are well priced. There is plenty of street parking and it's good for doggies due to its outside seating. I will definitely be returning! read more

So disappointed. I walk by this tasting room all the time when I work in Napa and finally stopped in with some coworkers. We were wildly disappointed the wines were not good. I don't even know how to describe it. This is the first tasting room I've dumped almost every glass and so did my friends. The tasting is $30! Only way to get it comp'd is to buy 3 bottles?! I'd say it must be a Napa thing but I've been to other rooms that are way better and way better priced in Napa. The guy working didn't seem interested in anything going on either. He just dropped the wine off, told us what each one was and that was it. Maybe he doesn't like the wine either. Not sure. read more

Great wines, great people. Love being able to actually taste with the winemakers. Will go back.

Tasty wines and really wonderful relaxed atmosphere with games and woodsy vibes. Would come back.

Don't let the lack of "Big Name Labels" steer you away from this gem. The single vineyards wines they are making at Leaf & Vine are as good as anything you will find in the Valley (and at a much better price!) We were lucky enough to hang out with Tim the winemaker and the word hospitality doesn't do it justice. Great vibe, great wine, great people. (And I would consider us wine snobs because we are in the industry) Go there. It's right downtown near everything. Just go there. read more

This was the worse tasting room experience. We did their tasting which was 3 white and 3 reds. No one in that place wears a mask. None of the employees. After we did our first flight of white, the guy with the beard came over and poured our reds in the same glasses that we had drank our white!!! I have never seen anywhere do that. I asked him (kindly) if it's standard to reuse our white glasses to pour red. He stumbled with an answer that it's better to reuse glasses then use clean ones from the dishwasher. Waste of money. There are better tasting rooms on that street. read more

I am so bummed to have had a pretty bad experience at this cute tasting room in downtown Napa. My friends and I went in for a quick glass or tasting before dinner and left quite angry at how we'd been treated/shorted. The tasting offers 6 tastings for $30-- three white and three red. In my experience, this is a pretty common spread for a tasting and you are typically offered between one to three ounces per pour. However, paying $30 for less than ONE glass of wine each due to measly pours is not common. Here's how it happened: John (the only man in the shop), introduced himself as the sole owner and employee of Rebel. He mentioned he had worked at most of the wineries he was pouring from and had a bit to say about each wine when conducting the tasting. While that was all well and fine, John poured less than one ounce each of wine-- equaling about 5ish ounces total. I refuse to pay $30 for less than one collective glass' worth of wine. Especially when they've been priced at $40+ A GLASS, each. Upon prompting John about being shorted he said "I'm pouring probably more than I should, actually. The standard is one ounce and Im pouring one to 1.5 ounces in your glasses, getting close to two." I wanted to say " would you like to get a measuring glass? Because I can assure you this is not even close to an ounce let alone two. " Furthermore, in a group of three, we have committed to spending $90 at your shop in hopes of tasting some good wine and maybe even buying a glass-- it is incredibly rude and terrible customer service to tell customers you get what you get. A bigger pour this time around will not kill you-- especially when it's what we've paid for. I was genuinely shocked at the amount of wine given for $30, the pretentiousness of the owner, the wine and the prices on the menu. Long story short, dont go here unless you feel like wasting your hard earned money on poor customer service and itty bitty pours. And while the wine we did have was good-- I will not be paying $42 for a glass of wine when I can spend that much on an equally as good bottle of wine. read more

Rebel Vintners - Absurd prices for "by the glass" selections. - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Napa, California

I think maybe we didn't come at the right day or time. It was a very quiet vibe, felt more fancy wine tasting place than the casual vibe the other reviews made it sound like (and we were looking for). There were games, and we chose a quiet one bc I think the Jenga was there more for looks than for play haha. The wine was fine, but in Napa you are literally surrounded by good wine so you gotta be special somehow. You can do a tasting flight for $30 (though the price may change depending on what is on the flight each day), or you can get a glass of wine. Overall A-OK, not a bad experience but not a wonderful one either. I bet it would be a lot livelier on a Saturday afternoon, maybe try it then? read more

I'm so glad we stopped at Rebel before dinner. All the guys were super nice and it's such a treat to A) get to talk to the winemakers and learn from them, B) try some non-stereotypical varietals (Carignan, Verdejo, Tempranillo, AMADOR Zinfandel and a Chard what wasn't just butter and oak), and C) people who genuinely seems to enjoy being there and talking with patrons as more than a transaction. As a couple of teachers who've been visiting Napa for over 15 years and feeling more and more like we are being priced out of the region (Hello, Sonoma!) the guys at Rebel give us hope. read more

Very cute, owner-ran wine tasting room in downtown Napa. The location is convenient and next to some cute little shops and good restaurants (but let's face it - everything is delicious in Napa). The wine tasting itself was fine and there were a nice variety of games to keep any group entertained, but I personally did not find anything significant about the wine itself. Since in wine country, perhaps my expectations were a big higher than they would normally be.. One of the owners who was helping us was helpful and very friendly so I give him 5 stars! read more

Good wine and loved the laid back atmosphere. Unfortunately, we were forgotten about when there was a change of staff. We weren't in a hurry so it was not a huge deal, just slightly annoying. We did notice another couple was also forgotten about and they ended up cutting their tasting short and leaving midway through. The other thing that made our experience less than great was the staff's dog who was running about. I love dogs and would have no issue with a trained one or even semi-trained dog but this cutie was running around wildly, jumping on the couches, humping/biting the pillows and barking loudly if he was put on leash. It made it a bit difficult to fully relax and feel comfortable that everything was clean. read more

Hip, unpretentious, unique and quality. This collective of small producers offer great wines with lesser known varietals and styles from the "Napa common" and is located downtown with extended hours so folks can try something different and at a reasonable price. The team is informative and friendly and the wines are great. Branch out and check them out. read more
