If you have all the time in the world then go here, but this is not what one would hope for. Very bland. Rube More

My husband and I went here for the second time in four years. We will keep going back anytime we are in Napa Valley. We only go to the Reserve Room so I can't comment on the other tasting room. In the Reserve Room you can taste and buy BV's higher end wines. It is also nicer and quieter than... More

Mid valley winery with a great history of Napa Valley Winemaking. Wines are excellent. Can be crowded. Look for 2 for 1 coupons in local magazines. More

I have been wanting to stop here for years. Will not go back. Very confusing when you enter, we paid first, then saw others paying after. We found a spot at the crowded tasting . The gentleman that started or tasting was very involved with a Spanish speaking couple and we had a hard time getting his attention after the... More

During our most recent trip to Sonoma and Napa Valley, we swung by the BV winery because my mom really likes BV wine. Since I was the driver, I didn't want to drink at all and my sister doesn't drink wine, my mom was reluctant to do the tasting. Once we got to the main tasting room, we were offered... More

A really lively and fun place to taste wine, especially when you're waiting for a table at Rutherford Grill. Pourers are very nice and generous with portions and tastings. More

I always loved this wine and I was not disappointed by visiting it in person. Tasting fees are $15 and up. We are used to tasting in the central coast were few wineries have fees for tasting. Most wines see to be pouring the recommended amount of wine. If you go to other wineries, the host/hostess will often pour much... More

Beautiful wine store. They still had their Christmas decorations up and it was beautiful. The store was very spacious and the ladies there were gracious and friendly. More

Not much to say about this winery except that the tasting room is very nice and well decorated. But, the wine is very commercial, generally very young with a lot of tannin bite. To be honest, if our hotel wouldn't have given us a comp tasting pass, then we would probably have passed on this winery. But, we were curious... More

We came late for a tour. Tours are at 11 and 2:30. The staff graciously offered to take us on a private tour since we were late and they were not busy at the time! It was about 20$ per person and well worth it. Our tour guide was Robert, and he was also the assistant manager and very knowledgeable... More
