This has to be my favorite wine tasting room! Andy is so funny and friendly! The wines he recommended were amazing!

Had a great time talking to the owner, AJ and learning about the boutique wineries he represents. Also so nice to be able to taste delicious wines while walking about downtown Napa! Loved the location right next to Oxbow Public market and The Model Bakery! We joined the club so we could gain access to their wines. Well done!

I went to Napa on a trip in Feb of 2023, but I went back later that year and plan to make it a staple in my yearly vacation plans from here on out all due to AJ and TWT. He is such a knowledgable guy and only puts out the best wines. He genuinely cares about the story of each brand and winemaker he is involved with, and it shows. Of all the memberships I signed up for, his was the only one I didn't ask questions about. Simply the best.No winery in Napa compares to the quality you find at AJ's place. Overall, this should be the only must-visit you should have on your list when passing through the area.

We just moved to the Napa ish area and we have tried, ahem, quite a few wineries in our first year here and this is the place the husband and I always recommend. The wine thief is always a great time and they have the best collection of wine. Definitely check it out! ?

Andy was not only a great curator for our tasting, but also an amazing winemaker. His Syrah was a perfect addition for dinner. We have a great time learning about him and trying some delicious wine! Perfect end to our weekend Napa trip.

The Wine Thief will steal your heart as you consume some of the best wines in Napa Valley. Andrew was an amazing host with immense expertise about wines, Napa Valley, and not only his own line but the other wines they serve as well. My husband and I found this little gem walking around Napa and stopped in because of the name. As soon as we entered, we got a friendly greeting, and the tasting began. We tried so many wines, including the "Stagecoach," which had a prominent spice to it, the "Toro Block," a unique red with a lovely finish, a 2019 "Spring Mountain" with a touch of spice, a 2019 "Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon" with a super smooth finish (one of my favorites), a "Sugarloaf Mountain" cabernet from 2018, and last but not least, a 2019 "Extended Barrel Aged Malbec" that stole my heart. No matter your taste in wine, there is something here for everyone, and we loved the intimate setting. The wines were truly top-notch, and I would (and plan to) order some for the holiday season. Despite the many choices, it is easy to choose once you try a few, and Andrew was more than generous to let us try his wines. The only other thing I can say other than what I've already said is that this is a must-visit location when you're visiting Napa Valley, and finally, although their slogan, "Drink it like you stole it," is very catchy, these wines make you want to sip slowly because the quality is beyond what you may find at even the most highly rated places in the area. Once again, thank you, Andrew, we will be back! Lillian Mareddy.

we felt like we got a big dose of owner's small man syndrome. unfortunate but sort of amusing i suppose. YMMV!
You need to come here to try Napa Valleys personal best. Skip the big names. Intimate tasting with the owner himself (Andy) representing Napa Valley best winemakers at it's best for the those with distinct taste wanting your unique palate satisfied come here this weekend.

Our annual stop to see Andy and taste his ever-phenomenal collection. We love, love, love his collection of offerings. We don't "need" anything in our cellar, but HAVE to take home his vino. A stunning Pinot, barrel aged Malbec, Cabernet Franc and we ARE rich, deep Cab fans. Gotta go- enjoying the experience.

A beautiful tasting experience. Andrew is clearly passionate and knowledgeable about wine. He is a personable individual who will tap into what makes wine special to you and will elevate that love to a new level.

Karen demonstrated exceptional kindness and imparted her extensive knowledge on oenology, enlightening us with her expertise in the realm of wines.

We did a tasting at The Wine Thief on the 4th of July, which was also my husband's birthday. It was surprisingly empty, so we enjoyed an intimate tasting with Andrew. We expressed our like for deep-red wines, and he formed a customized tasting for us. All of the boutique wines we tried were the best of the best among Napa valley. Throughout our tasting, Andrew had us "guess" which wine was from his winery. It turns out his pinot was our favorite! He did give us an extra pour due to my husband's birthday. We also taught my hubby to throw wine corks. It's the new classy version of beer pong. This definitely made our experience. We will certainly be back when in Napa again.
