Food and wine pairing themes are mainstays in the chock-full seminar and event calendar. Peller's full range of Private Reserve whites, reds and sweet wines by Winemaker Lawrence Buhler are alwasy rich and approachable, while the Signature Series features age-worthy reds, award-winning Icewines and the unique Ice Cuvée sparklers, sweetened with a touch of Icewine. « less

We visited Peller Estate twice this long weekend that passed. The first one was during our wine tour and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour. Our guide was very knowledgeable and I learned new things regarding properly tasting the wine, which glass to use and many more... The second time we visited was during the Food Truck Eats Event. We really... More

The day after visiting Trius, we visited Peller. From the second we drove into the driveway this was a beautiful experience. The main building really is stunning, and we could see the parallels between the many California wineries and vineyards we have visited. Having done lots of tours before, and even the prior day at Trius, we opted for a... More

Upon arriving, yes it was beautiful. The grounds are impeccable and it is gorgeous. However, upon taking a tasting, our server, or wine 'expert' was very condescending and just snappy. For someone who is educating people on wine, he need not be so snobby. This was the only winery out of 8, that we didn't buy wine from...and we bought... More

We really enjoyed visiting Peller Estates. It is in a wonderful location and very beautiful. The staff was very friendly and our tour guide took the time to explain everything without making us feel rushed. The employee that served us during the wine tasting was equally as nice. Our entire experience for the wine tasting and the tour took about... More

We reserve the special dinner with wine pairing. Food was fantastic. Staff is so knowledgeable. they are also very flexible if someone doesn't like what they serve they make modifications. We got there just in time for dinner but I would recommend to arrive early and have a tour, it's worthed!

This is one not to miss. The main building is really nice. We did the tastings in the boutique and also as part of the tour. The tour was informative and the cellar is really impressive to see. They do a nice job. The restaurant looks really nice – didn’t have a chance to try it this visit, but will... More

We have visited this winery before, and enjoyed coming back to restock on some of the Peller private reserve. Very welcoming staff, friendly and knowledgeable about the wines.

This winery tour is lovely! The staff is very knowledgable, the tour really is worth your time. Purchase an extra tasting (3/$7) especially if you're planning to purchase wine anyway.

Just the drive alone is fantastic, absolutely stunning. We stopped at every overlook. You pass tons of other wineries that could not possibly compare to the grand entrance of Peller. This place is gorgeous driving up. The tour was fun and informative. The tasting was delicious and we left with several bottles of wine.
