"Pine Ridge’s Cellar 47 cave tasting room was once reserved for wine club members, but the winery recently opened the Stags Leap District cave to the public. New features in the 37,000 square feet of caves include better ventilation and lighting, and plush leather and velvet seating chosen by interior designer Kristin Martin. The business won’t name names, but the Pine Ridge caves were visited recently by both NBA and NFL members who love a good glass of red wine." - Maria C. Hunt

This tour was awesome! Our host was super friendly and extremely knowledgeable. The cave tasting was the best overall experience of our trip. The wines were excellent and they provided a light snack as a palate cleanser to go along with the tasting. Extremely clean and well staged. The grounds were emaculate. Would definitely return.

Really disappointed with the staff. We arrived early to an empty winery and were told to go outside because everyone was at lunch. We wandered through the demonstration garden, but that only takes about 10 minutes max. We asked if there was a possibility that we could do a cave tasting, one staff member sounded optimistic, but then the same staff member that told us to sit outside said, "Absolutely not, we are booked." Meanwhile the tasting room and parking lot was empty. While waiting for the tasting to begin, another staff member was trying to open a bottle of sparkling wine. Unfortunately, she spilled half the bottle on me and the table and down the hall. Instead of sending a manger to talk to us, or offer any accommodations, they went on like nothing happened. The interesting thing is that the sparkling wine wasn't on the tasting menu, and other than the amount that was poured on me, we weren't offered a tasting. The person pouring seemed like she could care less about the wine and our experience, later encouraging me to try Australian wine. Please don't waste your time and money at this winery. It was my birthday, so my boyfriend paid for the tasting and left a tip, but only because he didn't want to leave a bad impression or for them to say something because he is brown. That fact that he was concerned that they were treating us this way because of our biracial relationship is disturbing. Also, I did message the winery on their reservation system to alert them that I was not happy, to which I have yet to receive a response. Truly the worst experience in Napa.

For those who love full-bodied yet fruity Cabernets, this winery is for you! What an amazing experience! My mom and I had never been before and loved the winery! The cave is so cool and tasting area/ room in the cave was great. Only down side was no food (nuts and cruMcGuire bread sticks). Shout out to Melissa who was so knowledgeable about their wines, the process and Napa Valley in general. Highly recommend!

Loved Troy who toured us. We have been members for such a long time and we’re married in the garden 25 years and loved being back. Thanks for making our time with you so special.

We'll be back. We had a lot of fun. The cave tour was great, but the wine itself was some of the best I've tasted in a long time.

We did a tasting here with Troy! He was great! This was one of our favorite wineries on our trip. We will definitely come back here. Great red wines. We didn’t get to do a tour because they were sold out but look forward to checking it out.

This was our first stop as we got to town for our trip. It basically checked all the boxes for what a winery is. Pretty, modern location, with good views, good wine, and an informative server. We felt the wines were above average. Maybe it was the sticker price shock that felt this place was overpriced for what you get (basically 5 shots of wine for $55). We then realized that most of Napa was charging these prices for tastings (I remember when they were $10 a few years ago!). However, other wineries would give us more wine to taste. thanks

High quality wines with a focus on reds and especially cabernet sauvignon. If your visiting, try to book a cave tour which has a great guest room where you can relax and enjoy your tasting

Winery Stop #14 of our Napa Valley trip last year saw us enjoying a magical cave wine tasting at Pine Ridge Vineyards, which has become one of my favorites in the area. Their wines are absolutely exquisite and mystical, even more so when you can enjoy them in their beautiful tasting room within the .75 miles of cave passaging underneath the ground. Located on the Silverado Trail not far from Baldacci Family Vineyards, Pine Ridge comprises lush hills and trees and the vineyards surrounding the main tasting house leading to the caves. Our host, Steve, was a joy to take us through the cave passageways, showcasing the various barrels of wine that were being aged. He gave us insight into the wines, the winery, and the history of the caves dating back to 1985. After about 10 to 15 minutes of walking through the caves, we reached the tasting room area that seemed like something straight out of Batman with the Batcave. Before we turned towards the private dining area in one of the caves, we had the chance to experience some glass artwork by Chihuly that the winery had purchased a while ago, and it served as the centerpiece when you first arrived at that part. The wines that Steve curated were terrific and told a story. We enjoyed a 2019 Carneros Merlot, 2019 Epitome Cab, 2019 Knollside Cab (which was one of my highlights), 2019 Stag's Leap District Cab, and a 2019 Circle Hill Cab (which was an appropriate way to conclude the tasting due to its bold and big flavors on the palate). Furthermore, Steve opened up a 2003 Fortis, which was astonishing. The latter was like having a chicken stir fry -- savory, soy sauce, and teriyaki for notes; just a stunner. Steve is a pro for opening up aged bottles of wine like the 2003 Fortis. He was the best. An excellent guide who possesses an impressive knowledge of wine. Pine Ridge is fortunate and lucky to have him. Venturing through the caves at Pine Ridge with my wife was outstanding.

No food but I am an eight year member of wine club. The wines are best I get anywhere.the order comes on time each quarter and the Cabernet is outstanding

Krista G.

My dad recommended this vineyard and it was my favorite one from my trip. All of the wines on the tasting list were very good, even the Chardonnay and the got even better from there. I will visit this place for sure if I make it back to Napa again. They had a beautiful and inviting tasting room with cool grape inspired mid-century modern chandeliers. The host was very personable as were all of the people working there. The outdoor seating was also beautiful with a perfect view of the vineyards beyond.

This winery is consistently our favorite winery in Napa Valley. Are there better ones? Maybe, but we have found something that we really like and we continue to come back. We joined their wine club about 15 years ago, and then experience the excitement of getting winds every three months or so. When we come out to Napa, we always make a point to do a tasting here. This year we did it with some friends of ours, so all four of us got to enjoy it. Our hostess was fantastic and knowledgeable, and although we did not buy any wines, because we already have them shipped to our house, we have a fantastic experience. There are certainly much bigger wineries in the Napa Valley, but this one is our favorite!

Enrique was GREAT!! We had such a wonderful experience touring and tasting one of my favorite wineries. The property is beautiful and we enjoyed tasting wines we didn't know they produced. I was so excited we became members. Looking forward to having access to some of their exclusive bottles and attending events in the future.

We came here for a friend's birthday as well because it was highly recommended by the same friend who got a membership here after one tasting. I immediately could see why as the service was wonderful. We got checked in as soon as we arrived and were given tastings while waiting for the rest of the people on our tour to arrive. They also have the most adorable wee winery dog, which gains ten points on principle. The wine tour was very detailed and involved walking through the winery, fermentation room, cave, and learning about the process while tasting. The only complaint I have is that the wine pours seem to vary a bit. For instance some people got quite heavy pours while mine seemed quite small in comparison. Their wines are very tasty and I can honestly say I enjoyed every single one and went home with three bottles. The stags leap 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is not to be missed. Overall a wonderful experience and I will definitely be back again and most likely sign up for a membership.

Our host Sophia was so wonderful and welcoming to me, my father and my dog. I love a winery that is dog friendly. I wish the tasting could have been outside as the weather was so lovely and the couch area felt a bit stuffy but we had a lovely time. They make nice Cabernet and I highly recommend their Stags Leap District Cab.

This was our first vineyard tasting in Napa and it was a great choice. The wines were all wonderful and our wine expert, Steve was amazing, super knowledgeable, friendly and taught us so much about their vineyard and wine making. We had a terrific time!

Great tour guide who had lived in the area for his whole life and had many recommendations and ideas for my group! The cave tour was pricey but worth it for me as this was my favorite tour & wine tasting in Napa!

Tansy W.

Did the table tasting and really did not like any of the wines, sadly. We did get some nice smelling candles but otherwise left pretty disappointing. We also did not think the grounds were as pretty as the website suggested. The host also repeatedly referred to me and my sister as mother and daughter, which my sister did not appreciate...yikes!

Our experience at Pine Ridge Vineyards on 5/13/2021 was amazing. We were seated at one of the tables outdoors in their front entrance area fairly quick (& with a reservation). The staff are super friendly and our wine professional (?) was very informative and taught us two newbies about wine! I believe his name is Christopher?! It was a very personable and quaint experience--totally recommend for first timers! They have an estate tasting menu that consists of one Chardonnay and four Cabernet Sauvignons. We also had a couple glasses of their bubbly, Sparkling Chenin Blanc+Viognier, and a taste of their Cab Franc--the king of Cabs. We ... went home with a bottle of bubbly and two bottles of cab... . That alone should about explain how much we enjoyed our time haha.

Heard good things about the winery so we were very excited to try it out. Booked their Cellar 47 tasting as we wanted the best experience possible. We arrived a bit late as our previous appointment went long, but still had to wait 20 minutes before we were seated. No glass to try while we waited, just had us standing around while it seemed like they were frantically preparing our table. Didn't seem prepared for us. We ended up getting seated 30 minutes later than our 3:00pm reservation. We did not have their "guided tour of our European-inspired cave system", as written on their website. Also, because we were seated late, our 90 minutes experience ended in an hour as they claimed that stopped serving wine at 4:30pm. So we did not end up getting the experience we expected. And the service seemed very rushed, as if to get us out as quickly as possible. The wines itself were okay, but at a very high price point. Definitely not on the list for a revisit.

Linda S.

Yelp
So what was so excellent about our experience was first Christian, who did a great job hosting but also the variety of wines from their sister wineries. We were able to taste such variety without having to drive from winery to winery. We ended up with a membership. Definitely worth considering when looking for tastings

Helen H.

Yelp
A little further than Napa but really worth the extra drive. We had to get reservations here a month ahead of time and we didn't even get a great time (11:15am). The backdrop and vineyard was beautiful. Nestled up against the hill and forest, you won't find better scenery. They also have this really cool cave for the wine barrels. Not even sure if they're being used but it makes for great pictures. The server was really knowledgeable not just about wine but the actual oak from the barrels. We ended up buying 3 bottles that were absolutely amazing.

Had an outstanding wine tasting experience at Pine Ridge this morning. Our host, Steve, was extremely knowledgeable and pleasant, and had so many great stories to share about their wines, winemaking processes, and the regions from which they source their grapes. Pine Ridge Vineyards are well-known for their Cabernet Sauvignons, and now we know why! If you're looking for an enjoyable tasting experience in a beautiful setting, this is the place to be. Thank you, Steve, and thank you, Pine Ridge Vineyards - can't wait to come back!

Wow! Thus was so much fun and so interesting. And we don't even drink! I read in another review that Caroline was not a good guide, well, we had her and she was fantastic, knowledgeable and took wonderful care of us. We had a group of about 40 and had reserved the winery for the evening. They greeted us with 2 kinds of wine as we got off the bus, as mentioned, I don't drink and was disappointed that they did not offer grape juice, but they did give us water. Carolyn took us on an educational tour showing how the grapes are grown and turned into wine. We then went in the caves "cellars" where we had our spectacular dinner!1. The staff was top notch and went past my expectations and treated our group like royalty.

First stop on a very fast paced weekend. Typical Napa classic vineyard visit. Standard tasting. I will say that if you are a Cabernet lover- the Napa Valley Cab offered at $60 a bottle or $48 club price is a STEAL. A club membership for this alone is a great choice.

Erna F.

Yelp
A small winery with the best cabs! I googled " the best Napa Cabernet Sauvignon " and Pine Ridge was on a Top 10 list. We became members since fell in love with their wine on our first visit. Two years later and visits to other highly rated wineries in Napa, I still love their wine over some others. The service is always great, the staff is always very knowledgeable and they have added some new, well designed areas for wine tasting. If exceptional cabs are your thing, you must try Pine Ridge.

Had an excellent experience at Pine Ridge during our trip this December. Christopher gave us a wonderful tasting experience full of knowledge and fun. He treated us and our pup with the best customer service. We really enjoyed their Stagecoach Cab and Stags Leap Cab! Also want to give a shout out to Christine who works there! She was friendly, informative, and added to our overall great experience at Pine Ridge! Thanks for a great visit and hope to see you again soon!

Pine Ridge wines are absolutely amazing! From the beautiful ground and crazy cool caves where they have tastings, to John our wine tour guide he was so informative and so detailed I can't tell you how much I appreciated him. We so enjoy discussing one of my favorite subjects wine. I tasted what I might say is one of theeee best Reds I may have ever had ever! FORTIS it was pure heaven! Yummm plus's the pairings with the food was delicious! What a wonderful time I had chatting and discussing these beautiful wines. It was a little bit of a drive, but definitely worth it! Cannot wait to come back! Cheers my friends see you on Yelp!

We had such a wonderful experience at Pine Ridge Vinyards this weekend. We booked the Cellar 47 tour, and it was truly an exclusive experience. Our host Christopher was fantastic as well, funny, approachable but also very knowledgeable. He took us through the cellars while we enjoyed the Carneros Chardonnay, and explained the different types of barrels to us. We then entered the tasting room in the cellar which was beautifully prepared. We tasted 4 Cabs, and we honestly enjoyed each one of them. The 2018 Carneros Cab and the 2018 Stags Leap were our favorites. We decided to join the membership club so we we will definitely be back.

Yelp
Wonderful location in the middle of two hills of vineyards. Outdoor tasting was perfect. Inside tour of the caves and wine making facilities was cool. So many caves to wonder. They also have inside wine tastings in the caves. They only provided bread sticks for the tasting. Cheese would have been nice.

One of the only wineries that could accommodate a party of 10 that included non-drinkers and kids on a summer weekend. We booked the garden picnic, and were seated outside, away from other groups at a large table. Setting is gorgeous, great hospitality and the wines! Loved the chenin blanc viognier was everyone's favorite. Light, crisp and perfect for summer. We got a few bottles to go, including their Cabernet Sauvignon which was also lovely. Only downside is they don't serve food, so make sure to bring your own snacks! Lovely spot for a picnic.

Pine Ridge is the best winery - both for its a service and great wines! Our server Christopher was a awesome! Very knowledgeable and engaging. :) Feels like I'm coming home every time I visit.

Christine R.

From beginning to end, the staff were attentive, and our docent Jon was entertaining and fantastic! The cave tasting for "Savor Pine Ridge" food + wine pairing was outstanding. Chef Susan made all the gourmet bites with with love, from the panna cotta to smoked duck breast - nom, nom, nom! My favorite wine was their flagship Fortis, and at $225 a bottle (yikes) who wouldn't? If you're in the mood to splurge a little, WINE not! For all you Cab Sauv lovers, this is the place, highly recommended! They specialize in high quality cab sauv's from their single vineyards. One can taste the excellence; we're in Cab country aka Stags Leap District! We couldn't have asked for better weather. Harvest season is truly the best season to visit Napa Valley Wine Country! I also learned that Pine Ridge was where Executive Chef Eric Maczko started his passionate culinary career - rest in Paradise Chef Eric. 'Til next time ~ cheers & see you on Yelp (SYOY)!

My visit to Pine Ridge was fantastic! Our tasting was held inside (I believe our host's name was Chris). Our host was extremely knowledgeable and spent a lot of time with us during our visit. We really enjoyed how our server would pour one drink, go into detail about what we were about to taste and hang around to let us as questions and would explain how and where the wine is made. He would then let us enjoy the tasting and later came back with the following pour (5 total from the tasting menu). Additionally, we were interested in purchasing a bottle and he even gave us a 6th pour for us to try. There was another host (female who had just returned to in person tastings) who also came to our table and was delightful. She even gave us a small redwood tree to take home that was leftover from the monthly membership boxes. After the tasting we took a little walk in the garden/ vineyard which was very pretty. I would highly recommend anyone visiting Napa to make a stop at Pine Ridge.

We had an opportunity to visit Pine Ridge on Saturday 7/10/21 and found the winery to be even better than what we expected. We visited with my family and enjoyed a Cellar 47 Tasting. From the moment we arrived, the staff was highly engaged and genuinely excited to have us there. Soon after we arrived our educator, Amber (not sure that's the title but she certainly taught us a ton about the region, the wines, and the story behind Pine Ridge winery). In all, we had a great experience seeing the caves, meeting a few of the staff, and tasting a wide range of wines all sourced from their vineyards. If anyone is looking for a fun, low-key, yet highly educational experience alongside delicious wines we would highly suggest Pine Ridge - and if it's going to be a hot Napa Valley day, be sure to reserve a Cellar 47 Tasting - the caves are amazing and about 20 degrees cooler (or more) that the outside temperature (so bring a coat). And hopefully you'll be as lucky as we were and you get Amber to be your host. Cheers!

Our group of 3 couples loved this spot. The 10 am vineyard to cave tour was perhaps our favorite of our week. Enrique was an extremely knowledgeable and engaging guide. Extremely generous tasting of various wines. The grounds and caves are amazing. Really good wines. I joined the wine club! Good options for small commitment and good wine. Exceeded expectations.

On 2/27/2022 we did a wine tasting at Pine ridge in the caves. It was beautiful inside and nicely decorated with little lights. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Wine was great and they even printed on the menu for my birthday!

Enjoyed their Cabernet, Duck Confit and dining in their wine cave. The staff are so friendly and made our group feel welcomed. Go if you can.

John F.

Yelp
A very mechanical wine tasting experience that I suspect ran like a thousand others before it. Very little personality, attention or information. The wines were mediocre at best. Also, probably not a great idea to include a wine (Black Diamond) from Washington State for people visiting Napa. C'mon! Update: Management reached out to me genuinely concerned about our experience. I very much appreciated the dialogue and desire to ensure that every guest enjoys their experience.

Jennifer S.

Yelp
Came here on labor day weekend and it was pretty packed so we were glad we had reservations. We chose this winery because it is dog friendly and everyone was so nice to our pup. They allow well behaved dogs in the tasting room and it was nice to be able to sit inside in the AC when it was 100 degrees outside (they even provide dog treats and dog water bowl!). We enjoyed our experience of 5 different kinds of wines and we ended up signing up as a member because it was low commitment. We especially enjoyed the Malbec and got several of them afterwards. They also let you taste the grapes in the vineyard and I am excited to attend the members only events!

I visited Pine Ridge on 07/24 during Covid times and felt super safe with the protocols they put in places. I made an appointment through their website and called to make sure they were dog friendly, which they very much are. Sometimes some places say they are, but then act like they are not. I felt super welcome here with my two pups. Upon arriving, we checked in at the front and were told to wait by a covered patio area until our host (if i remember correctly our host was Fernando) came to get us. We didn't have to wait for long until we were taken to our table, which had the wine all set up with the wine glasses all covered. The water bottle, brand new pen, and hand sanitizer were such great additions. Fernando was super knowledgeable and friendly. He made us feel welcome and made our tasting experience here great. He was very personable along with the lady at the front who loves dogs. We bought four bottles of wine to waive the tasting and also because the we liked the wines. Pine Ridge has fantastic wines and most of the ones in the tasting are not sold at supermarkets. Before leaving we took some photos near the patio area where the vineyard is. I have been to over 20 wineries during my eight visits and Pine Ridge is truly a great taste of Napa with their hospitality and great wines.

Yelp
I'm sure the wine is good, but we never had a chance to find out. We arrived at Pine Ridge at 3:28 pm on a Thursday (2 minutes ahead of our scheduled appointment time). We stood at the front desk waiting to check in for five minutes. At 3:33 pm someone finally acknowledged our arrival. They told us who our host would be, then disappeared. We waited (standing at the front desk fully visible to all) for another 15 minutes, and the host never appeared. Several winery employees passed us by on several occasions, but no one ever even acknowledged our presence during those 15 minutes. We finally left. There are plenty of REALLY good wineries in Napa. We visited five other wineries on our two day winery tour, and all of them had exceptional wines and exceptional service. I would recommend passing on this one...

Chris L.

Yelp
My wife and I gave Pine Ridge Vineyards a visit on a whim, and left as members . Steve and Chris were amazing hosts, friendly and informative. I appreciated the hospitality greatly. We enjoyed a tasting out on the beautiful patio. Their list of Cabernets stands up against any other larger winery in the area . I can't wait to take a deeper dive into their catalog.

My favorite Maya Angelou quote has always been: "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." So i am happy to report that the winery's customer service continues to be at the gold standard level, with a constant eye on best practices. (Even with the tough time trying to get reservations on the weekends.) I write this after talking with their Estate Director who read my Yelp feedback on the challenging reservations situation. She discussed what the winery is trying to do to accommodate members' visits, especially during release months, during a pandemic. I didn't know about some new member events! I also loved how well she listened to my ideas, and how she recapped next steps, turning a conversation into purpose and action. Clear, open communication makes all the difference and is often the simple solution to any issue. And I especially appreciate her accommodating us for the visit we originally tried to get. Took the "h" out of the wine.

This vineyard is terrific. Enrique, our guide, took us on an amazing adventure of delicious wines. He also told us great stories of the vineyard, the wines and walked us through the wine cave to explain the process. This was a great experience.

Our wine tasting was so enjoyable today! And Troy made it very special for my 50th birthday celebration. All the tasting pours were tasty as well! Our favorite was the Sauvignon Blanc. We bought 4 bottles to take home. Definitely come here if you're going to do wine tasting in Napa!

Celina J.

Yelp
Shout out to Joe for his energy and vibe. We did the Estate Tasting for 9 people. It was so nice to have someone speaking our language (layman's terms) and being relatable. He helped us understand the concepts even more and took the time to answer all of our questions. My favorite part was when we had to go around the table to say which one was our favorite; based on that, he gave us 1 last tasting personalized to what our answers were. As someone who actually doesn't know much, it was the icing on the cake for me to have someone help me figure out what I like.

Went for a tasting at Pine Ridge Vineyards on Wednesday afternoon. A little pricey, but the wines are worth paying a bit extra. And if you can, absolutely take time to visit the caves. Quality: Pine Ridge Vineyards provided some of my favorite wines during my recent trip to northern California. The challenge however is to find the right balance with the prices. An Estate Tasting was a great way to get a sense of the wines without feeling like I invested too much into a drink I simply don't have enough experience to appreciate fully. The Estate Tasting came with a 2016 Napa Valley Merlot, 2017 Malbec, 2016 Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon, 2016 Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon, and 2014 Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon. We also got small samples of a petit verdot and a sauvignon blanc. My favorites were the petit verdot and the 2014 Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon, but honestly I could not justify buying a bottle of either. Quantity: Generous tasting pours and a willingness to showcase more than just the wines on the list. Value: $45 for an Estate Tasting. Ambiance: Pine Ridge Vineyards is located in the Stags Leap area of Napa. Located on a hill, the property has a simple elegance in its appearance. Outside they have a small patio area, which would be lovely on a warm day. Unfortunately it was cold and rainy, so we made our way indoors. The tasting room follows suit in design with a simplicity, but also a sophistication. From the tasting room you get a peek of the remarkable caves used to age their wines. We were lucky to take a quick stroll through the caves, which are lined with barrels and have strung up Christmas lights to guide you through. Getting to see the private tasting area and lounge, truly made it a memorable experience. Crowd: A small crowd gathered in the tasting room, but there were also a good number of members in the exclusive lounge. The higher prices definitely impact the amount of visitors. Service: Excellent. The woman who led us through our tasting was simply fantastic. Extremely knowledgable, very friendly, and excited about the different wines. She also noticed our interest in the caves and was happy to lead us through a quick tour. Parking: Private paved parking lot in front of the tasting room.

High quality wines with a focus on reds and especially cabernet sauvignon. If your visiting, try to book a cave tour which has a great guest room where you can relax and enjoy your tasting

The service here was exceptional! Everyone was extremely friendly throughout our visit but Fernando and Tess in particular were outstanding. Our wine tasting was good I'm not a huge cab fan but I still enjoyed it. The caves are definitely a sight to see so I would recommend the tour.

Fantastic wine, exceptional staff members! My friend and I visited Pine Ridge during Napa's "COVID-19 re-open" phase to enjoy a special trip out of the house. Pine Ridge provided a seamless experience and we had a wonderful time. We scheduled a late tasting to wrap-up our day visiting other wineries. The reservation process was very convenient and easy to use. Although I did call ahead to learn about their property's COVID-19 precautions and protocols (thank you Stacy Dorritto for your kind assistance with my inquiry!) I made an account with a popular scheduling platform, Tock, to schedule my reservation at Pine Ridge. This was especially helpful because I had the option to modify my reservation (myself) when needed. We tried the standard Estate Tasting and enjoyed our wine out on the patio. The entire experience was required to be outdoors and although we would have loved to see more of the inside of this beautiful place, we enjoyed their comfortable patio area very much. All staff were very welcoming, kind, and knowledgable about their products and process. We learned a lot about wine during our visit! Due to the COVID-19 limitations, our tasting was scheduled for a true 45-60 minute slot since ample time to sanitize and limit the number of guests on the property is necessary between reservation slots. This was plenty of time for us to enjoy our tasting, chat, and take some fun photos by the vineyard before we departed. We will definitely be back, again!

My husband and I have been a Pine Ridge Appellation Club Members since 2007, which means that we get at least 12 bottles of their red wines each year. And year after year, the wines have been consistently excellent. From a great weeknight wine Charmstone to the heavy hitter Fortis, I enjoy each bottle of Pine Ridge that is opened. My other favorites are the Howell Mountain and Oakville Cabernets. The Tasting Room is worth a visit, and if you have the time, I would suggest the Wine Tasting and Cave Tour.

Excellent service, wines, and the view is amazing. They aren't serving food right now.

The 2017 cave 7 Cabernet and the 2015 Stags Leap Cabernet were my favorite. Their Chenin Blanc and Viognier sparkling wine is a fantastic wine and it's only $18 a bottle! Incredible! Service is wonderful. Thank you Christopher! The grounds are very pretty and the outside tasting area is very comfortable and relaxing. Visited during Thanksgiving and the winery has very good safety protocols in place. Reservations a must.
