Rombauer Vineyards - St Helena, California

Wonderful wines at a classic winery. Friendly staff makes it extra special (thank you Jesus!).

Lovely tasting room that overlooks valley and plenty of outdoor seating and pathways to explore. $25 per person tasting. Super reasonable.

Highly recommend if you are in the area. Zins are top notch!!

Nice touches: Free valet parking, free bottles of water, and quite tasty bread sticks that are local.

Absolutely beautiful setting. This was our last tasting of the day and we were sort of done with tasting wine, especially after eating too much at lunch. We feel maybe we aren’t giving it a fair shake, but really the only reason for the 4 stars is because of the service. We were sat in the “secret garden” which is stunning. But, then another younger couple was sat a little bit after us and the wine server was much more focused on them. We are a couple in our late 40’s, early 50’s but also had my elderly mother. Our wine server was maybe in his late 20’s. I think he struggled to relate to us, but he offered this visual map to the other couple and explained it in detail. He never offered this and had to ask about it. We just felt a little ignored. He was nice to us but just didn’t pay us much attention.
None of us are fans of Chardonnay. I knew this particular Chardonnay is very popular and was curious if I’d like it. Unfortunately, it tastes like every other Chardonnay I’ve ever had (not a fan!) But, I thoroughly enjoyed their Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon.
And again, the setting is just gorgeous and no regrets about our visit!!

One of our favorite wineries we hit during our wine tour. The guy that did our tasting was great with lots of good information about the winery, grapes, and history. At the end of the flight, he catered our tasting towards the types of wines we prefer. The wine flight fee was very affordable which was also a plus!

My experience at Rombauer was exactly what I needed in Napa Valley. Such beautiful views of the valley high up on the hill tops, to get there the drive is very scenic. I visited in February, weather was perfect at 60 degrees and as the sun set, it was just enough chill to wear a light jacket. You heard all the wildlife around you sitting in the luscious garden (yes, the flowers were bloomed in February!!) The value of the tasting was very fair, I'm so glad I came here instead of other winerys that prob would rob me for the views I had. The wine was fantastic, I enjoyed the Zinfandels and Chardonney. It truly felt that you were in a hill top vineyard in France, quiet and beautiful. Shoutout to Dinero , David & Bob, best staff! Also - bring your own picnic!

Ryan gave us a fantastic tour and tasting through the cellar. It was fun getting the behind the scenes view of production. His relaxed walked through of the wine and food pairings gave us all the opportunity to explore different combinations. Absolutely loved their chardonnays. The atmosphere comes with great views and plenty of quaint spaces to sit. Absolutely recommend rombauer!

Another staple if you're in the Napa Valley/St. Helena. Such a chill vibe & beautiful views. Walk ins are accepted which can be tough when a lot of wineries are appointment only. The Zinfandel is their most popular & was SO delicious - it took me by surprise as I'm not a Zinfandel girl.
Walking the property is self guided, including their cave! Really awesome that a guide was not needed. 10/10 recommend!

Love this winery..and their wine! We had the late tasting and had a wonderful time. They were very knowledgeable about not only the wine but the area, family and history. We will definitely be back.

We had a fabulous time at this beautiful location. I was able to reserve a table the same day. We got a beautiful table overlooking the wine valley. The option of having wine by the glass or bottle was great. We had the cab, Pinot and all the wine were excellent. Specially the reds, which were full bodied. I loved the location and the setting and looking forward to going back soon and hopefully carrying a picnic lunch to accompany the wine.
