Rombauer Vineyards - SAINT HELENA

Beautiful spot to enjoy their Chardonnay with a few snacks. Amazing views of the valley from many different areas.

The experience here has changed over the years. Our last foray here was the least impressive. We had a reserved seating area but no organized tasting. Had to go to the window and order glasses and kind of cobble together our own tasting. A little disappointed by that. Still the Chardonnay and the Merlot are delightful.

Attended the 25th annual Joy of Wine event this past weekend and it is a must if you can get tickets! It’s almost all you can drink wine from their buttery Chardonnay, newly Pinot Noir, Cab, Sauvignon Blanc and more. Dinner was delish… a 3 course meal also paired with more wine. They started off with a tomato peach salad, then filet mignon (I requested for salmon) and cheesecake for dessert. The staff is extremely friendly and generous with pours. It was my first time attending this event and now I’ll want to make it an annual thing! It was a well planned out event. Oh did I mention … you also get to go through the caves.I have also had normal tastings here and it was fabulous. The vineyard has some great views and like I mentioned, if you like a buttery Chardonnay… Rombauer is the place!

Definitely the best winery I visit in the region. It is not the most modern or beautiful but it provided the best experience. Our tasting tour was delivered by a great story teller guy. He did a great job. I appreciated the quality of the wines as well.

Rombauer vineyards wine tasting area overlooks the hills and vineyards. Your wine tasting happens as part of a group. They provide you with a drink after you check in and take you to your designated seating area where you are greeted by your host for the hour.Our hostess was very funny and knowledgeable. We enjoyed our experience. The wine was pretty good, too.Unfortunately, they don't serve any cheese/meat. They do provide complimentary bread sticks. We brought our own cured meat, and they were kind enough to provide us with utensils so we could eat that.
