If there’s one thing Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars wants lovers of great Napa wines to know, it’s that this season, there’s more opportunity than ever to taste — and to take home — some of the finest. Each tasting focuses on quality and the personal touch, pouring estate and winery-exclusive wines.

Spend a wonderful day enjoying panoramic views of the Stags Leap Palisades while enjoying one of several curated wine-tasting experiences.

The popular experience involves a tasting and a guided winery cave tour. Guests learn about the history of the famous brand, as well as its unique terroir and winemaking philosophy. During the tasting, guests will journey through a flight of estate wines with fabulous views of the FAY and S.L.V. vineyards. While the emphasis is on current releases, guests may be surprised and delighted with a library wine from the cellar.

Due to high demand, availability has been increased to four daily time slots at 10am, 11am, 1:30pm, and 2pm. Reserve ahead ($95 per person).

 

CELLARIUS KITCHEN EXPERIENCE

Executive Chef Travis Westrope and the culinary team introduce guests to new flavor experiences, pouring world-renowned wines paired with dishes produced from only the freshest local ingredients.

Because Chef Travis knows the Stag’s Leap District so well, he understands precisely how to highlight the unique characteristics of Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars wines, harnessing selected wines’ individuality to best complement and contrast with flavors and aromas.

Guests meet a member of the distinguished culinary team — or Executive Chef Travis himself — to personally present each plate and share the story behind each pairing, linking the dish to the wine in a celebration for the tastebuds.

This substantial wine and food offering is both educational and delicious to equally showcase Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars wine and food course accompanied by a guided cave tour. Book this unique weekend opportunity at Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars for 12pm on a Saturday or Sunday. ($295 per person.)

Note: Due to a change in ownership in 2023, Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars is now wholly owned by the Marchesi Antinori family, one of the oldest Italian family-owned fine wine producers.
