Most wineries charge fees ranging from $65 and up per person and typically waive the fee if you meet a minimum purchase amount or join their wine club. Considering the tasting costs per person, this can add up (sometimes you can share a tasting).

There are routes to better organize the timing of your tour based on where you are staying, whether it's in the South, Mid, or North Valley, as well as Sonoma. I'm glad to help you by providing great advice on how to plan your visit.

Yes, for sure you could, though it is highly suggested to have a big breakfast before starting your day of wine tastings. Some of the wineries out here allow guests to have picnics on their estate; just inquire beforehand. Not only does Napa offer great wine, but there are also many excellent restaurants to choose from if you want to dine as well. To name a few: French Laundry, Auberge du Soleil, R&H, and R&D.

Typically, a full day of wine tasting consists of 2 or 3 wineries at most, along with lunch. Some guests try to schedule too many wine tastings in one day, only to feel rushed and unable to savor and enjoy the full experience of what the estate has to offer. It's also important not to overdo it and miss out on dinner.

Our service includes water and light snacks. We also provide a cooler for your food and beverages that you bring along in case you plan to have a picnic at the winery you’re scheduled to visit.

** GNVPC & DD services do not provide food for your planned picnic, but arrangements can be made.
