Lovely estate with great staff. Sunny days here are the best- busy but worth it. The sparkling flights are the ones to go for (maybe I'm just biased towards sparkling). I'd also recommend to try out the delicious vegan cheese pairing. It was so good that even the vegan-haters in the group wanted to order a second one! Cheeses are also sourced from nearby Miyokos, an added bonus.

Traveling in california as an occupational therapist assistant could not have given me the experience of a Napa- valley vineyard! This winery had beautiful architecture and views. The open doors throughout made it perfect temperature and sentiment for Sunday morning. I had the sparkling flight with East Asian bites to pair the pallet and wine! Came with a colleague and we will visit again. Also the availability is a lot more flexible than most vineyards and the price is exceptional!

Very nice wines and the estate is gorgeous! Service was fantastic.My only complaint was we visited during the week and they are doing some renovations so we sat in the corner of a patio under a big tent and absolutely had no view of anything so that was a bummer but we did recognize that renovations were happening so not much to do about that. Otherwise very good experience.

Although the grounds of this venue are stunning and the views are breathtaking, the wine flights in my wife and my opinion were only okay.Pros:-This place is beautiful. Think french country side and you have a good picture of what to expect. Beautiful sparkling chandeliers, grand fireplaces, uniquely painted walls, shining marble, and sweeping courtyards.-There is ample places to sit inside and outside on a good day-This venue is staffed well, and you aren't left waiting longCons:-This place is very busy. If its not a nice day, and everyone has to sit inside, then the noise volume in the house is very loud, and its hard to have conversations easily.-If you are a red wine drinker, this place doesn't not have a great selection. They are more known for their bubbly wines.

Delicious wines and Gabriel did a great job with the tasting.

The food was amazing for the tasting and the bubbles were delicious. Overall the service was great. It’s more on the pricier side for what you are getting. But none the less, everything was worth it

The place is very beautiful, the wines we tested are strong for my taste. But my husband liked. The cheese and salami dish is very tasty.

Tasting sparkling wine at Domaine Carneros is quite a treat. Our server Diego, was so knowledgeable and enjoyable it really added to the magnificent experience. Highly recommended place for some great bubbly.

The worst experience like literally 50 minutes to let us set and they ruined the experience
Nice place. Staff seems friendly enough. Try the sparkling wines. Only gripe is no seating in the immediate lobby area. After climbing all those stairs, a refreshment would be a nice touch.

Although the architecture and grounds are beautiful, I was left underwhelmed by the wine flight. While at the property, I selected the “Grand Flight.” Honestly, I only sipped on two of the wines. The other two did not sit well on my palate and I left them behind on the table. I sampled wines from three other wineries, and much preferred them to DC. If you are expecting a reimbursement for your wine tasting if you purchase a bottle, don’t look here. Also, I was disappointed we were only permitted in one room while on property.

The wine was great as well as the service! Did the Pinot noir tasting and loved it. Well worth the visit! Staff was super friendly. They were under construction so a tad confusing as to where to go but other than that great! Would love to visit again!

The bubbles are good & the property is lovely, but I was very underwhelmed by the service we received. We were sat in the back room by the barrels, given a menu to look at for about a minute & our server came over & said “do you know what you want?”. I was a bit taken aback by this approach. This was the first vineyard we visited on our trip to wine country, so I didn’t know what to expect, but I thought we’d at least be welcomed, told a bit about the place & the tasting options, etc. Initially, our server wasn’t forthcoming with any details on the wines, it’s like we had to pull information out of her. Once we ordered & she brought the wines out, she was a bit more talkative & gave more info on the wines. I chose the sparkling tasting, my husband chose the reds. We went on experience higher quality of service at other vineyards during our visit. If you’re looking for a more personal, social & meaningful tasting experience, I would not recommend Domaine Carneros. But if you just want to drink tasty bubbles & don’t care about service, this place will work for you. The products are great but the service we received felt cold, impersonal and ultimately made us feel like we were part of a machine. Maybe it was just a bad day.
