Ways to Experience Priest Ranch Winery
The next time you find yourself in the Napa Valley, we invite you to visit our Priest Ranch tasting room to experience uncommon Napa. Located in the heart of the quaint town of Yountville, we’re a little over an hour from San Francisco, just north of downtown Napa.
In addition to Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc, we offer unique varieties such as Grenache Blanc and a Brut Rosé of Syrah - rarely found at other tasting rooms in the Napa Valley region. A majority of the Priest Ranch wines produced are only available in limited quantities and can be purchased solely at our Yountville tasting room.
We’re excited to take this opportunity to dive in and share each of our unique experiences with you! Should you have any further questions after reading this post, please contact us at (707) 944-8200 or email us at visit@somerstonwineco.com.
Priest Ranch Wine Tasting
For our classic wine tasting, we invite you to visit our Priest Ranch tasting room for a uniquely cultivated and unexpected wine country experience. We offer a distinctive tasting program in an inviting, comfortable, and sophisticated wine tasting and shopping space. Offered daily from 10am-6 pm and available by appointment here.
Coach Gun Experience
The Coach Gun is our flagship red wine that showcases the beauty of blending. When the individual wines are brought together successfully, they create a unique balance. In this highly educational and unique tasting, you’ll experience the individual components of the blend firsthand, tasting each of the five Bordeaux varietals individually to form a better understanding of what each brings to the final blend. This experience is available by appointment only on Saturdays and Sundays with a minimum group size of four guests. Make your reservation here.
Bacon & Wine Experience
Whether you're curious about tasting unique varieties such as Grenache Blanc or enjoying a classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, this tasting will quench your thirst while filling your belly. We’ve paired four beautiful Priest Ranch wines with four exciting flavors of bacon that will elevate your visit. The wine and bacon selection changes seasonally, so be prepared to expose your taste buds to an array of flavors! Check out this short video to see this experience in action and book your experience here.
Priest Ranch Food & Wine Pairing
We have crafted a curated board of specialty cheese and charcuterie to enhance your tasting with this experience – regardless of which wine flight, you select. If you prefer a more educational experience, our Wine Specialists will guide you through how the proper food selection can enhance the specific wine's characteristics. This selection changes seasonally as our wine offerings do. Walk-ins are welcome; however, reservations are recommended, which can be made here.
Private Group Tastings
A COVID-19 friendly option for your closest family and friends, we invite you to cozy up in our private epicurean room to enjoy our wines in extreme comfort. Located in our Yountville wine tasting lounge, enjoy a unique flight of wines served by one of our knowledgeable Wine Specialists. A food pairing can also be added to enhance the experience. We ask for a minimum of six guests to book this tasting, and the wine selection can be customized for an additional cost. Call (707) 944-8200 or email visit@somerstonwineco.com for reservations.
Estate Experience & Lunch
In 2004, we combined the historic Priest Ranch (660 acres) and Elder Valley (955 acres) properties to create the Somerston Estate. Today the 1,615-acre estate has 215 acres of producing vineyards from 15 distinct areas.
We invite you to venture out to the eastern hills of the Napa Valley and learn more about the history of Priest Ranch at its source, followed by a wine pairing and boxed lunch. Take two hours to explore the quieter side of Napa, offered at noon daily (seven days advance notice required). Call (707) 944-8200 or email visit@somerstonwineco.com for options and availability.
Sparkling Wine & Caviar Experience
Enjoy the luxury of bubbles and fresh caviar in this brand new Priest Ranch offering! We pair our Brut Rosé with a 1oz serving of high-quality caviar, crème fraîche, and kettle chips. This experience includes a bottle of wine, caviar, and accouterments, which generally serves two. Whether you're celebrating an engagement, a birthday, or just the weekend, luxuriate with this unique pairing. There is limited availability for this experience, and reservations are required, which can be made here.
Please note as we're still amid COVID-19, and offer limited seating to ensure social distancing, advance reservations are recommended, and facial coverings are required to be worn by all guests. We eagerly look forward to hosting you in our Yountville tasting room sooner than later!
