This is a really nice winery with beautiful views. There are many varietals to sample in this friendly tasting room. My favorites were the 2008 Coda Rouge and the 2009 Rive d'Or, although the Grenache and the Morvedre were close. Very pleasant experience. Met the winemaker Mari who certainly knows what she's doing.

We have never been to any wineries outside of the Napa area so we tried to pick a few more modern wineries and we were not disappointed at David Girard! It was beautiful! A fairly large tasting room and a very friendly staff who were very accomodating to our party of 12. They even served chocolate with the tastings. It... More

The women that work in the tasting room make this place one of the most fun wineries to visit for tasting. Plus catch their summertime events! More

David Girard has produced a very successful vineyard in a lovely country setting. All of his wines are outstanding and the Tuscan style tasting room is charming. They have a beautiful area for a picnic, complete with barbeque, stage for outdoor concerts, pond and covered tent for events. All in the heart of the Gold Country. More
