This place is a real hidden gem! It might be the only winery in Napa that is still providing a free tasting, and quality of experience is top notch. You are greeted by the owner and he offers a vertical tasting of their famous Merlots that won Wine Spectator award in 2003. We tasted 2012, 2013, 2014, 2016 and bought a bottle of 2012! Tasting is private, overlooking the Spring Mountain. It is probably not for a big group looking to drink free wine but for those interested small family wineries looking for an intimate experience.
